We are so excited to get to celebrate each BCE staff member during Staff Appreciation Week, starting tomorrow. This year, we chose to highlight some of the strengths they have exhibited throughout the year by using an acrostic for "blue jays" as our theme. 

Thanks to your generosity, each day this week we'll provide breakfast, lunch, and an afterschool snack for all staff members with a few little treats sprinkled in and a special surprise on Friday. To help us celebrate, we are also inviting students to dress up each day according to the theme (details below).

Expect to see updates throughout the week, but on Tuesday we would like to shower each of our staff members with notes of love and gratitude. To be able to do this, this past Friday students received an envelope with notecards that we are asking be returned Monday with a note of gratitude on each for a different staff member. 

Didn't get the envelope or enough notecards? No worries! Any notecard, post-it note, or piece of paper will do. Can't get them in on Monday? No worries! Send them any anytime next week and we'll be sure they are delivered.

We are so grateful for our amazing staff and for your generosity that allows us to treat them extra special this week. If you have questions, please don't hesitate to reach out.
