Bacon Bears,
We are BEARS (Be Excited About Reading in School)
We hope everyone enjoyed last week’s snowy weather! Although winter decided to show off its icy charm, our team is excited to embrace this week with renewed energy and important events to share with you.
Jump Rope for Heart Assembly
On Monday, January 13, we’ll kick off the week with our annual Jump Rope for Heart assembly. This event is a cornerstone of our healthy school initiative, encouraging students to stay active while supporting a very worthy cause. Let’s jump into making a difference together!This Thursday, January 16, we invite all families to join us for our monthly PTO meeting at 5:30 PM in the library. This is a great opportunity to stay involved, share ideas, and collaborate to make RM Bacon Elementary even better for our students.
PBIS Team Meeting
Our PBIS (Positive Behavioral Interventions and Supports) team will also meet on Thursday to review our program and identify ways to strengthen it. We remain committed to fostering a positive school culture where every student feels supported and valued.
Bear Buddies Program
At RM Bacon Elementary, our Bear Buddies program continues to shine as a tradition that fosters a love of reading across grade levels. This initiative pairs older students with younger peers, creating meaningful mentoring relationships through shared reading experiences. It’s an excellent opportunity for older students to develop leadership skills and for younger students to gain confidence and excitement about books. The program also encourages collaboration among teachers, as they work together to select engaging books and coordinate activities that benefit all students involved. Through Bear Buddies, our school community grows stronger as we nurture a passion for learning and connection.
Looking Ahead:
MLK Jr. Day Reminder
There will be no school on Monday, January 20, as we observe Martin Luther King Jr. Day. This day honors Dr. King’s remarkable legacy of equality, justice, and service to others. We encourage our families to reflect on his contributions and discuss ways we can continue to embody his values in our daily lives. Whether it’s through an act of kindness or learning about his dream, let’s honor Dr. King’s vision for a better world.
Thank you for your continued support, and here’s to a fantastic week ahead!
