WE'VE GOT SPIRIT: Homecoming Beaverton style kicked off today in true Spirit Week fashion. Students at BJSHS celebrated with Adam Sandler Day, while kids at BES enjoyed Hat Day. The fun continues all week. More pix and all your HOCO INFO at https://bit.ly/3yzrYdh. #GoBeavers







AUTHOR! AUTHOR! You know you've arrived as a writer when you've got an ISBN number. "The Adventures of the White Cat" is a self-published book by Beaverton Elementary fifth-grader Marnie Stearns, who now finds herself living the writer's life, complete with a book signing and a website at marniestearns.com with everything you need to know. Well done, Marnie. (And that ISBN number? It's 978-0-9972115-4-2.) #WhiteCat #GoBeavers



ALL THIS AND TRAIL MIX, TOO: Beaverton Elementary students and staff welcomed moms, dads, grandparents and more Thursday morning at the annual Fall Fun for Families event. Guests gathered in the cafeteria and enjoyed a chance to interact with teachers and staff, celebrate summer learning achievements and learn all about what's happening in class. #GoBeavers




WE'VE GOT A COURT: The BJSHS Homecoming Court has been announced. All the HOCO details are available at bit.ly/3frHkcK.


Here’s another reminder to join your child this week at school for a quick celebration and to talk with teachers about what your child is learning.


Beaverton's Homecoming is October 7th! Attached you will find the Spirit Week Flyer for the Beaverton Elementary School. If you have any questions, please check in with your homeroom teacher. #beavertonpride

TEACHING THE TEACHERS: Students had the day off, but teachers were hard at it Friday working on professional development, and the theme was "data." Essential to student growth is the ability to recognize what works in the classroom, what doesn't, and how to measure improvement. Data experts from Clare-Gladwin RESD were on hand to help guide the discussion, all in the efforts to make sure that when our kids walk across that stage at graduation, they're prepared for college, a career or both. #PuttingInTheWork #GoBeavers

CRUCIAL LESSONS: Beaverton Schools hosted a series of presentations today from Trooper Shane Noble of the Michigan State Police's West Branch Post. He shared important information with kids in grades five through 12 about the real-life consequences of vaping, poor decisions with cell phones and cyberbullying. We appreciate Trooper Noble spending his day with our students and sharing his experiences. #GoBeavers
