We are working hard on addition and subtraction! Students are practicing different strategies to solve problems accurately and efficiently, while building their confidence with adding and subtracting numbers.

Thanks for helping us start the school year off on the right foot! 🧡📚

As we prepare for another incredible school year, we'd love to surprise our teachers and staff with a stocked teacher lounge and bathrooms filled with some of their favorite snacks, treats, and everyday essentials.
If you'd like to help us start the year by showing our appreciation, we've created an Amazon Wish List with items that will help make their days a little brighter.
Every gift—big or small—is a wonderful way to say, "We're so glad you're here!"

To all of our Beatrice Elementary families and community members—thank you for the many ways you support our school. Your generosity and kindness help make Beatrice Elementary such a special place to learn, grow, and work. We truly couldn't do it without you! 🧡🖤

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! 🧡🖤


We love seeing our students bring water bottles to school! Staying hydrated helps keep brains focused, bodies energized, and students ready to learn.
To help keep our classrooms clean and everyone happy, water bottles should contain water only. Please save juice, sports drinks, pop, flavored drink mixes, and other beverages for home.
Thank you for helping us reinforce this expectation. Together, we can keep our classrooms learning-ready (and a little less sticky)! 💙🧡
