Burlington-Edison School District -

Bay View School's Life Skills classrooms received a visitor today as Superintendent Pearson dropped by to spend time learning alongside the students. Dr. Pearson participated in various activities, engaging in hands-on projects, singing songs, and supporting academic and social skill building. The visit provided an invaluable opportunity for Superintendent Pearson to gain firsthand insights into the unique challenges and accomplishments of these remarkable students. The experience also served as a testament to the incredible dedication of the staff members who work in our Life Skills Program. #WeAreBE

The B-EHS Latinx Student Union (LSU) presented at last night's School Board meeting. The students shared their club's commitment to bringing awareness to Latinx culture and celebrations across the school. This week's #GratitudePost is for the student clubs, club advisors and coaches that provide students meaningful and engaging co-curricular activities throughout the school year. Involvement in co-curricular activities is fun and enriching and can strengthen attendance and academic success. #WeAreBE

Last night, K-8 students involved in our HiCap program participated in a Silent Disco as a kickoff event for the year. About 80 people attended representing over 25 different families and all five B-ESD elementary schools. Students submitted song requests and the grouped danced silently away to songs like "Happy," "YMCA," and "Never Gonna Give You up." B-ESD HiCap Program provided snacks and glow sticks. Wearing the headphones makes entry into the dancing easier and everyone feels like they belong. What a fun event! #WeAreBE

This week's #GratitudePost is for our community partners. Organizations like Children of the Valley (pictured), Skagit Boys and Girls Club, Communities in Schools, and many other partners work to support our students even after the school day ends. We are so grateful for the support of our community partners! #WeAreBE
