🎉 That’s a wrap on the 2024–2025 school year! 🎉 BCEL ended the year with a fun-filled Field Day packed with games, laughter, bounce houses, and quality time with our amazing families. It was the perfect way to celebrate all the memories we've made together! As we waved goodbye to our buses one last time, we couldn't help but reflect on the joy, growth, and unforgettable moments we've shared this year. 💛 Wishing all our BC students, staff, and families a happy, safe, and fun-filled summer! 🌞 See you next school year

School's out for Summer!

The families had a fun-filled morning yesterday at Field Day at Pine River! We truly appreciate all the volunteers who made this day possible. A big thank you to Miss Hatch and Mrs. Little for planning such a wonderful event!

Congratulations to our Leading Lancers of May at Pine River!

🎉☕✨ Fancy Day Fun in First Grade! ✨☕🎉 Yesterday, Mrs. Chappel's first grade class celebrated "Fancy Day" in style with a special tea party and an awards ceremony! 🫖🎖️ The event was a joyful way to honor all the incredible accomplishments and amazing growth these students have made throughout the year. From learning to read to becoming kind classmates and curious thinkers — they've truly blossomed! 🌟📚💡 Great job, first graders! We are so proud of how hard you worked and everything you've achieved this year! 💛👏

AP Biology students made a special visit to Pine River to teach some third graders all about Water Quality and its impact on the environment! Together, they explored the four essential elements of a healthy ecosystem — food, water, shelter, and space — and learned how water, both surface and groundwater, plays a crucial role in the health of plants and animals. Students got hands-on with a fun activity: creating their own filters to clean dirty water, all while applying the scientific method to test and improve their designs. A big thank you to Mrs. Crambell for organizing this engaging and educational experience!

Our 6th graders went on their annual, exciting and fun-filled field trip to the Midland Roll Arena! They enjoyed skating with their friends, learning new tricks and cheering each other on. It was a memorable day full of laughter, fun and lots of energy!

On Thursday and Friday, the 5th graders from Pine River enjoyed their annual trip to Mystic Lake. A big thank you to the 5th grade teachers and chaperones who helped make this memorable experience possible. The students had a good time canoeing, practicing archery, playing team-building games, and participating in many other fun activities!

Students in our Project Lead The Way (PLTW) class programmed robots to trace the letters of "LANCERS" in our Care Center area. PLTW is a hands-on STEM program that empowers students to develop problem-solving and critical thinking skills through real-world challenges. These photos capture the excitement and teamwork as students brought their robotic calculations to life!

Last Friday, BCMS hosted the 5th graders from Pine River and Floyd Elementary for their annual 6th Grade Orientation. This year's theme was "Under The Big Top," and our Peer 2 Peer group got to run the carnival. Throughout the second semester, 5th-grade students were paired with 6th-grade pen pals and wrote letters back and forth. Students got to meet their pen pals, play some fun carnival games, learn all about the middle school, and get all their questions answered about life at the BCMS. It was a beautiful day, and all of the students had a blast. We are looking forward to welcoming you to BCMS in the fall.

Congratulations to Morgan Dukarski for winning the middle school Battle of the Books competition! She was honored at lunch by Miriam Andrus from the Grace A. Dow Memorial Library and presented with a trophy and a check for $250 in which Morgan will help spend in selecting some new books for our library. We are so proud of Morgan as this is the second year in a row she has won this competition.

Today, we had a special visit from Judy Main, a former 2nd grade teacher who returned to her old stomping grounds to share her love of books with Mrs. Dopp’s 2nd grade class. Mrs. Main brought along a delightful collection of books and matching Beanie Babies, creating a fun and engaging reading experience for the students. We are always thrilled when former teachers come back to share their passion and continue to inspire our kids. Thank you, Mrs. Main, for bringing your joy and generosity to BCEL today!

Our middle school art students have been having a blast working with clay, creating fun and unique pieces in class! The finished projects look amazing and showcase the creativity and effort each student put in. Best of all, students get to take their clay creations home as special keepsakes to remember their hard work and artistic journey.

Mrs. Chappel has had a great start to Career Week! So far, 1st graders at in her BCEL classroom have heard from: -Patrick McElgunn: entrepreneur -Sarah Owens: education consultant -Matt Smith: realtor -Cliff Coston: National Guard Supply Sergeant -Sarah Pagano: airport manager (not pictured, oops!) -Teresa Switala: mental health therapist It's been so interesting hearing their questions and connections as they learn about all the different jobs.
