It’s Election Day! And some of our preschoolers spent their day practicing the art of voting!
Our youngest students cast ballots on fun topics unique to each class, like their favorite fruit, pet, animal, color, character, or shape. Each little voter chose just one option, practiced standing in line, folded their ballot, and proudly wore their “I Voted” sticker with excitement!
The votes were counted at the end of class, and the results were shared with students and families. Thank you to our future leaders for making their voices heard! 🖤🧡
It looks like, for one class, Olaf is victorious as the class's favorite character! ⛄️

It’s National School Lunch Week! 🍎
Since 1962, this week has celebrated the importance of nutritious school lunches in supporting student success. At BCS, our Student Nutrition department serves around 4,000 lunches and 750 breakfasts daily, ensuring students have the fuel they need to thrive in and out of the classroom.
A huge thank you to our dedicated nutrition staff for their hard work in providing balanced meals that positively impact student learning and growth! #NationalSchoolLunchWeek #BcreekSchools
As part of our character education, the preschool students are being brought together as one with a giant friendly snake named "Creek". Each student gets to paint a rock and add it to the snake, wrapping it around the building. If you are in the area, stop by and check it out!
🚒 Earlier this month, Mrs. Hart & Mrs. Ammon’s preschool class went on a scavenger hunt! 🚒
In honor of Fire Prevention Week last week, the students have been learning about community helpers, focusing on firefighters. They explored how firefighters keep us safe and learned about important safety items in our school and community, such as fire alarms, fire hydrants, and fire extinguishers.
After their lesson, the class went on a scavenger hunt to find pictures of everything they had learned. It was a fun and adventurous way to reinforce the importance of fire safety! 🔍👩🚒

It's National Bus Safety Week! This week is dedicated to:
🚌Raising awareness about bus safety
🚌Educating the public, especially children, about safe bus practices
🚌Promoting safety measures among bus drivers, schools, and transportation providers
🚌 Reducing bus-related accidents and injuries
To help ensure the safety of our students, our School Resource Officers (SROs), along with Deputy Chrystal Bowers of the Greene County Sheriff's Office, participated in "ride-alongs" with several of our drivers. They were on the lookout for safety issues like illegal bus passing and speeding drivers.
Throughout the week, they will also be monitoring bus stops and school zones across the district to keep our students safe! Thank you to everyone for your commitment to student safety! 🚍 #NationalSchoolBusSafetyWeek #StudentSafety #BcreekSchools #OneDistrictOneMissionOneCreek
🌿🐚 Preschool Fun with Hermit Crabs in Mrs. Zimmerman & Mrs. Laughman’s Classes! 🦀✨
This year, our preschoolers are exploring the world of hermit crabs! Nine crabs joined their classroom, where students observe, care for, and even build playgrounds for them using blocks. They also give the crabs baths and predict which foods they'll eat each day, recording their findings on a T-chart.
From learning about their habitat to watching videos of crabs changing shells, these hands-on experiences are sparking curiosity and discovery! 🦀💡
