Bagley Families,
Staff Appreciation Week
Thanks so much for all of your energy in helping us celebrate and appreciate our school staff this week. Don’t forget to have your child write a surprise note to your child’s teacher and other staff this week. Our Staff Appreciation flyer was sent home last week and I’ve seen the smiles on many staff faces as they’ve shared the notes they have already received!
Second Step Units
Your child’s teacher will be sharing the Child Protection Unit or Bullying Prevention Unit over the coming month. Please take a look at the Second Step CPU (K-3) or Second Step BPU (4-5) sites to learn more about these mandatory units.
Yearbooks for All
Thanks to all of the families that have purchased their yearbooks and donated yearbooks for others. We have about 60 % of our orders in already! If you haven’t yet, please place your order and return this flyer to school. How Do I Pay for a yearbook?
Nectar News
The Nectar News is shared with students every Monday to educate and celebrate Bagley student news, identity, and expectations. Check your emailed update for the link.
Appreciations
Each week we share appreciations for our staff and adult community at Bagley in the Nectar News video. We would love it if families wanted to take some time to share a shout out at this link. Bagley Appreciations Link
