Dear BBEA Parents and Guardians,
BBEA is launching a new schoolwide academic initiative, “Give Me 30”, designed to strengthen student skills in Math and English Language Arts as we prepare for upcoming state testing.
This principal-led, student-driven effort uses IXL Learning to promote consistent practice, academic growth, and mastery of essential standards. Students are encouraged to spend 30 minutes a day engaging with IXL learning, building confidence and sharpening the skills they need to succeed.
We ask our parents and guardians to partner with us by:
• Encouraging your child to use IXL Learning regularly at home.
• Celebrating their progress and growth.
• Reinforcing the importance of effort, persistence, and practice.
Together, when school and family work as one, we can accelerate learning and help every student reach their full potential.
Thank you for your continued support and partnership as we work to ensure success for all BBEA students. All students have been provided with program login credentials. If you have any questions or experience any login issues, please contact BBEA’s Front Office for assistance.
📣 Girls and boys track tryouts will take place next week. For grades 6th, 7th & 8th.
🗓️ Monday, Jan. 12, Tuesday, Jan. 13 and Friday, Jan. 16 from 4-5pm. Students MUST be picked up by 5:15pm
‼️ A completed sports physical is required BEFORE students can attend tryouts.
Reminder! School resumes tomorrow (Tuesday). We look forward to seeing all of our students tomorrow.
