Before Christmas break the Girls basketball team hosted Autograph night. This is such a fun event for the players and the upcoming future Chargers.
4th grade students have been busy building sleighs to deliver Santa's packages. They had to purchase supplies for their sleighs using a budget of $1,000. They then had to code a Sphero to deliver the packages through a course. This was challenging! They had to put their teamwork, perseverance, and problem solving skills into action!
Mrs. Firchau's students invited the first graders to paint with them on the early out day.
The 4th Grade class, with the incredible assistance of Mrs. Meissner's FACS class, made 40 cozy fleece tie blankets for Christmas. Each student had the opportunity to choose a special person to gift their blanket to, allowing them to experience the true meaning and importance of giving.
The Brandon-Evansville Band/Choir student fundraiser of Ole & Lena Pizza's will be delivered to the school on Thursday, 1/4 at 1PM and will be available for pick up from the NEW garage behind the Brandon Campus building (by the playground) from 2PM-6PM. Please email or call Erin with any questions! eokerlund@b-e.k12.mn.us
