Dear Birch Run & surrounding area community,
We would like to host our first career fair for families to enjoy. We need a wide variety of jobs displayed on table tops with presenters sitting at each to discuss the jobs. We would love all kinds of jobs both trades driven and careers related to degrees. You would need signage/poster about your job and any other table top displays/pictures you would like. See our flyer for more information. We could accomodate work vehicles in the bus loop- exavators, garbage trucks, tractors, police vehicles, EMT, fire, etc, if anyone would rather post outside. We want this to be a really fun night- please volunteer! You do not need to be a parent to participate- please share on your FB pages. Sign up here to help present your field: https://forms.gle/RR9wgvaUWJZTAZHa6

Thanks to a wonderful grant we were able to add a third GSRP classroom this year. Miss Krista Berg will now be teaching GSRP. Her classroom received a makeover! The students are going to enjoy this new furniture, carpet, magnet station, light table, alternative seating, blocks, toys, dolls, kitchen, art station, and so many new books.

Good news- the postcards and envelopes are at the Post Office ready to be mailed tomorrow! It's our favorite time of year! A huge thank you to Mrs. Jones as it is a LOT of work entering 690 kids into Skyward for their new classes, printing labels, and stickering & stamping all of these pieces of mail. Students can start checking the mail later in the week. We have several new students who will not be receiving their class assignment in the mail because they are missing documents yet. We have emailed you and attempted to call you to remind you. Your child is not fully enrolled until we have all of the documents that have been requested. We understand that you are busy, but we definitely need these items before the first day of school, or your student will be unable to start on time. We are unable to enter them into skyward and put them in a class until we have that legally. We don't want any of our friends disappointed. So please check your emails- if this is an issue contact the office tomorrow and stop up with your documentation.

Students who completed 50 ST MATH puzzles a week were invited to the Splash Pad today. Students enjoyed the water, playground, and a frozen treat. Thank you to all the families who encouraged their kids this summer, to local businesses for their support, and to Ms. Keipert for all of her planning!

Health & Wellness Table- request a table to participate!

We can't believe August is already here! We are back in the office this week from 8 AM- 4 PM. We will be very busy working on classlists, calling other schools for students whose SOC form was dropped off this summer, getting postcards ready to send next week, and getting the building ready for the start of the school year. If you previously dropped off a School of Choice form, it is likely we were waiting to hear back from previous schools before reviewing your application. We hope to have this finished by the end of the week. If you have yet to turn in your SOC form, the window closes August 8th! Get your forms in. https://drive.google.com/file/d/1WuXVQzOdCUy3DGX5KK-Wmri4ggxU5u6P/view Please do not call the office asking who your child has for a teacher. These will be sent out via postcards or letters hopefully on August 11th. We will not give that information out over the phone- plus the kids love watching for the postcards.
