If you see Ms. Cusic, make sure to thank her for another successful career day! Students got to experience over a dozen different careers with our community partners. It's never too early to start planning for your future.

This is just a reminder to please double-check your times for conferences. We want to make certain everyone has an opportunity to talk with your student's teachers (us specialists count too ya know). We look forward to seeing you either Wednesday or Thursday.

It's the last day of Read Across America week and I thought I'd contribute some of my favorite books I have read this year.

Tomorrow we get to wear hats! Silly hats, normal hats, hats made of hats but not hats made of cats. That's messed up.

In a surprise move, OPS has cancelled school tomorrow. I'd like to say I'm surprised, but it took me 45 minutes to shovel out my sidewalk and car today. Only travel if necessary and make sure to be safe out there.

[Beals Elementary @OPS_Beals]

Well winter has officially won. I give up. On a lighter note, Read Across America week starts Monday with a pajama day. I will also be updating this week with books I recommend in the library.... https://t.co/Mevz1OvSwx

Have a good snow day. Please don't travel if you don't have to as the roads likely won't be safe for quite some time. Maybe watch some Marie Kondo and clean the house tomorrow.

[Beals Elementary @OPS_Beals]

Wow. I hope everyone had as much fun as I did on Valentine's Day. Fever, coughing, copious amounts of Robitussin. Now that I'm back on my feet, I'm here to remind you that there is no school Monday, February... https://t.co/kPl23jsINC

Tomorrow is a cold day so please don't venture outside unless you have to. Enjoy a nice book and a hot chocolate.

[Beals Elementary @OPS_Beals]

Just a reminder that tonight is literacy night from 6-8. There will be free cookies, free hot chocolate, free games, free books for everyone. It's going to be 'lit.' Get it? Yeah... sorry.
