Applications are now open for this summer's Governor's Schools. These are free residential summer camps and provide wonderful experiential learning opportunities for current 7th and 8th graders. We've had several kids from Bruceton be accepted over the past few years. Information is posted on Schoology and students can also get information from their teachers.
Here is the link to the webcast of tonight's band and choir concert:

A couple of announcements this evening:
Tonight is the annual Jingle Jam band and choir concert at 6:30 in the gym. Students and parents can stop by the art room anytime between 5:00 and 6:30 for a make-and-take ornament workshop.
The middle school basketball games scheduled at East Preston for December 12th have been rescheduled to Friday, December 8th.
A reminder for parents that drop off and pick up their children that when entering the drop-off/pickup line, you must proceed past the school to the lime shed, turn around, and make a right turn into the school property. Please do not try to cut the line by turning left into the line when it is backed up.
We had 338 students with perfect attendance for the month of November! Today Miss Brooke opened up the prize closet and drew 5 names to reward their great attendance. Congratulations to:
Ayrton Richards
Dava Kazarian
Josephine Johannsen
Karina McClurg
Trenton McCormick
It's quite a feat to accomplish perfect attendance, especially around the holidays and when there's been a lot of illness going around. We'll keep drawing names for perfect attendance each month as well as random surprise daily drawings from time-to-time for students present at school that day.

The Academic Boosters and our volunteers always make sure that everything offered at Santa Shop is either at or below cost and ensure that all children are able to shop for their families and friends. Thank you to everyone for their help and support for our kiddos!

Remember to join us tomorrow night for our annual Jingle Jam band and choir concert in the gym at 6:30. Parents and students are welcome to join us in the art room anytime between 5:00 and 6:30 to make their own holiday ornament too.
Bruceton School now has an 'Elf Surveillance Team' on the loose! Two feisty Elves on the Shelf have unleashed 48 pesky, little elves to roam the halls until the holiday break! Each week we have designated grade levels assigned to find them and bring them back to their watchful perch. Kids who find and return elves to the office can win a prize. This week, grades PK-2 are on the hunt. Next week, it's grades 3-5, and the week of December 18th, it's middle school's turn.
Congratulations to our elementary student council. Their float in Saturday's parade won first place for youth entries!
