❤️💛 **Small Change Can Make a BIG Difference!** ❤️💛
We are so excited to partner with the **University of Nebraska Dance Marathon** for a fun opportunity to teach our students about kindness, generosity, and helping others!
During **November 16–20**, Beatrice Elementary will be hosting **Penny Wars!** Students can bring in spare change or dollar bills to help their classroom compete for a **SURPRISE!** But the best part? All money raised will support children and families at Children's Nebraska in Omaha!
This is about so much more than collecting coins. It's about showing our students that **even the smallest act of kindness can make a BIG difference in someone else's life!** ❤️
Participation is completely optional, and every little bit helps! We can't wait to see our students come together to help other kids!
**Big hearts. Small change. AMAZING impact!** 🫶
Please see the attached flyer for all the fun Penny Wars details!

The PTO is SUPER EXCITED to be hosting the 2nd annual Trail of Treats event tomorrow night! BSDC has partnered with us to host their Halloween event on the same day so families can enjoy all activities in one night. Please see attached flyers for details about both events. We hope many of you can join us for the fun! Have a great evening!
We believe that raising kids takes a team! We are exploring the idea of offering a series of opportunities for parents and caregivers to learn, connect, and share ideas.
We want these opportunities to be meaningful, practical, and focused on what YOUR family needs!
Please take a couple of minutes to share your thoughts.

🧸 Let's Keep Toys at Home! 🎒
We know those squishies, NeeDohs, fidgets, and tiny treasures are fun—but they can quickly become distractions in the classroom.
To help keep everyone's focus on learning, please leave all toys at home. If a toy comes to school, it will be held until the end of the day and then returned to your child.
If your child uses a fidget as a learning tool, we'd love to partner with you! Please connect with your child's teacher so we can develop a plan that best supports their success.
Thank you for helping us create classrooms where every student can learn, grow, and thrive! 🧡🖤
