COVID immunization clinics
B-E High School students were given the opportunity to explore manufacturing, transportation and construction careers at Alexandria Technical & Community College. During this tour, they were able to visit with instructors and students and learn more about the programs offered within those divisions which include; Carpentry, Diesel Mechanics, Machine Tool Technology, Marine, Motorcycle, and Powersports Technician, Mechanical Drafting, Design, and Engineering, Mechatronics, Professional Truck Driver and Welding Technology.
B-E third graders had some special visitors today. Douglas County's very own Deputy Bob Peper and K9 Ozzy came in to answer all of our questions about what it's really like to work on a K9 team. This is in line with an informational text about K9 officers that third graders have been working on in Reading class over the last couple of weeks called "Aero and Officer Mike." This presentation was extra special because it was K9 Ozzy's last school demonstration. K9 Ozzy will soon be retiring and a new K9, Cain, is in training to take his place on the Douglas County team with Deputy Peper. Thank you for sharing your time and information with us Deputy Peper and K9 Ozzy!

The Brandon-Evansville Early Ed department in collaboration with Douglas County Early Childhood Initiative and Thrivent will be holding a 50th birthday celebration of Week of the Young Child. The Drive/Walk Thru Event will be held on Thursday, April 22nd from 4:30-6:30 behind the Brandon School by the Early Ed room and playgrounds. Please pull in and line up on the one way street, 4th Street West in Brandon.
If you have a new born-5 yr old child you probably have been to a drive thru birthday party. We are inviting our BE district families to drive/walk thru either with or without your child(ren) to pick up a gift bag. Yes, we know this is backwards, as you are getting the gift - but how fun! What is in the bag? It is a birthday secret. Yet here is a clue. The children from Jill Mogenson’s Child Care (shown in picture) will also be playing and learning with some of the secret items that can be found in the"Talk, Read, Sing" birthday party bag.
In addition, door prizes from local businesses will also be drawn at random times throughout the event.
We hope everyone can make it to our party!!
(If weather should cancel the event, please check The Record and BE Facebook page for a rescheduled date of this event.)
