Mrs. Bryant's Class: Downtown Field Trip

Mrs. Bryant's class and the rest of BSLK went on a field trip downtown.  They got to play on the playground at the park.  While there, they got to pet Conrad and Fluffy, two sheep being kept in the community garden (thanks Mr. and Mrs. Penney!).  After the playground, Mrs. Bryant's class got to visit the library.  There they listened to a few books and met the three library guinea pigs.  The students also got to visit the bakery at Foodland and learn about food prep.  Thanks Foodland for the yummy cookies!  At the post office, the kids got to check out the mailboxes and learn all about how to post office works.  Finally, everyone got to visit the fire station. There we learned about the firemen's gear, the fire truck, and explored the fire station.

Kindergarten Vision Screening

Our yearly school-wide vision screening took place on September 19th and 20th. There were 395 children screened this year. This is always a great opportunity for our students to get a first-time vision screening. We have many students each year that are found to have vision problems that may not otherwise be recognized. Best of all, this a FREE service provided by Vision Research Corporation. We’ve had an amazing screener for the past three years, Mary Jones. She is always patient and kind to our kindergarteners. We are very fortunate to be able to receive this service for our students.
