Today we celebrated nearly 85, K-5 students who earned a spot at the Trimester 2 Reading Party through their hard work in reading! Students had a blast playing Human Battleship and enjoying hot chocolate to celebrate their reading accomplishments.
We are so proud of their dedication — and so thankful for the support from families at home. Keep up the great reading! 📖✨
We are excited to honor our senior basketball players with a Senior Recognition Night. Seniors will be recognized Saturday between the Girls Varsity game and the Boys Varsity game.
We look forward to celebrating our seniors and all they have contributed to our basketball programs. Thank you for your support, and we hope to see you there!

BES 2nd graders and our BHS Early Childhood class have been writing letters back and forth to each other throughout the school year. One of the activities that they have been working on came to life today! The 2nd graders had drawn a monster and then our HS students crafted the monster! These turned out great. Our kids were so excited to receive the crafted monsters and to meet their pen pals today! The next step in the project will be for the 2nd graders to write about their monsters. I was impressed with the quality and attention to detail in these crafted monsters. Take a look at the drawing and then compare that to what our HS students made. Pretty creative and some good sewing skills! Here's a link to the video of all of them: https://photos.google.com/share/AF1QipNaqfNEGbKN6p93TAArArWUdDkvlCmFbegxsK-cxf8mzVKnN6p8WLvMSFAdIzEp5Q/photo/AF1QipMgxmqYmrFy3mQeEq9BfmnPmlhAN7l7KCEjepqU?key=RWVSNlRLOVJfX2k2aGhFdUdUd0YtVkw3d2tyNmpn
Update on the Burlington Fish: All of the eggs have hatched, and the fry have been released from the egg basket. They are now in the fry stage of the rainbow trout lifecycle. If they were in their natural habitat, this is the stage at which we could observe them.
HS StuCo put on another school dance last Friday night. We had a good turnout with about 50 students. The dance ended early at 10:00pm so basketball students could make curfew but everyone still said they had a great time!
Mr. May's Lifetime Sports class learned about winter safety while having a blast ice fishing. I heard 4.5 fish was the most caught by any one person, but that might've been a fish story. You'd have to ask Eve how it's even possible to catch half a fish!

Happy Valentine's Day! Looks like many of us were "Heart Attacked" in all the best ways!
12 BES students participated in the Showalter Music Festival, practicing the month of January till February 7th. They anxiously awaited their turn to perform for the judges and did an amazing job. We are so proud of these students for taking time on a Saturday to do this. Thank you parents and guardians for supporting music, too!
14 BMS students made the cut to attend the Math Counts competition with Ms. Winters yesterday where they took 2 individual tests: one with calculators, one without. Then they were split into teams of 3-4 to compete against other schools. We competed against Powell and Thermopolis, with a total of 36 students competing. BMS did a great job! Here are the results:
2nd Place Team: Stella, Cambria, Lucy, Finn
4th Place Individual: Bronson
3rd Place Individual: Finn
Top 12 Individual (made it to the Countdown Round Bracket): Finn, Bronson, Katie, Lucy, Cambria
Top 8 Countdown Bracket: Katie, Finn
2nd Place Countdown Bracket: Finn
Third graders dabbled in mosaic art based on their study of the Roman Empire!
Our 5th graders just completed a hands-on social studies project focused on the origins of the 13 colonies. After researching aspects of their chosen colony, including its founding, geography, and daily life, students transformed their learning into a three-dimensional dodecahedron display. Each face highlighted a different topic, focusing on organizing information clearly and creatively. The project combined research, writing, and creativity while helping students build a deeper understanding of early American history.
Our Lifetime Sports class was able to climb NWC's rock wall yesterday. Grip strength was the thing that left the strongest impression; students tested both their fingers and their toes as they climbed. They also learned how safe the tethering system is at NWC. It had magnetic breaks in it to let you down easily when you fell. Students were excited to learn that each tether was below a different level of climb, from easy to advanced. Every student climbed the 2 easy sections, but no one was able to make it to the top of the advanced climbs. By the time they were done, they had worked up a good sweat. It was a super neat afternoon at NWC!
Our spring Elementary Student Council has been voted in. Congrats to: President-Ben Casey, Vice Pres.-Jaxton Rasmussen, Secretary- McKenna Davidson, Treasurer-Mark Davidson, Photographers- Charity Ball & Brigham Winters!
Even our teachers participate in brain breaks! These breaks are short, intentional pauses (usually 1-3 minutes) from academic work, involving quick physical or mental activities to help students reset, refocus, and improve concentration, thus preventing cognitive overload and boosting learning. These breaks can include movement (like dancing or stretching), mindfulness (like deep breathing), or creative exercises.
Last weekend Speech & Debate competed again and our team did fantastic. We are looking forward to seeing how they do in Casper next weekend. Results:
Layla- 3rd in Oratory
Raygen- 1st in Informative
Reece- 5th in Informative
Reece and Kitzen- 5th in Duo
Kitzen- 5th in Drama & 4th in Congress
