Bacon Bears,

Keys to Character Unlock the Future!

Dr. Cook returned this week from his trip to China. 

This is a time of year to be thankful! At Bacon School, we are thankful for our students, parents, staff, and community for the support needed to be a successful school! We all play our part, and that is why we are able to achieve our goals!

Last week we had our annual Turkey Feast. This tradition has been around for a long time, and each year it continues to improve. As you know, there is a lot of work that goes into planning and executing the Turkey Feast. A big thanks to all of the staff members who worked hard to make it a success! It is all worth it when you see the faces of the students and listening to how appreciative they are for the Turkey Feast.

This week we have Early Dismissal on Monday, Tuesday, and Wednesday at 1:45 PM. On Monday and Tuesday, we will be hosting Parent/Teacher Conferences from 6:00 PM - 8:00 PM. The conferences are an excellent opportunity to discuss student development.

Our school will be closed on Thursday and Friday in observance of the Thanksgiving Holiday!

Food Drive
Mrs. Candy coordinated our Food Drive for Thanksgiving. The donations were given to Derick Glenn, who will be delivering our donations to the homeless and less fortunate Veterans in Cumberland County.

Our students take pride in community support.
