Good News Report

Character Kickoff and 911 Tribute At the end of last year students and staff voted on a new Character Touchstone. Our new touchstone is “Working hard, passing classes; My future’s so bright, I need Sunglasses!! You can see the new touchstone on our agendas and on our school shirts!! Each grade level has chosen a color and students and staff will tiedye their shirts that color. On Friday, September 2, we help a spirit day where students wore their grade level color on clothes and in hair!! (see below) On Friday, September 9, with the help of a Bayless High School Leadership class, our school held a tribute to those who lost their lives in the 911 incident. High school students made coloring books for our students and ribbons for staff and students. They also sold t-shirts for $10.00. (see right)

Sixth Grade Students Take On Reading Challenge Sixth graders at Bayless Intermediate will all be required to read forty books this year!!! Don’t be scared though, because some students have already made it one fourth of the way there. Ms. Dunn and Mrs. Stone read a book over the summer that inspired this requirement, The Book Whisperer. Students will have all year to reach this requirement for each genre. The genres being read will include poetry, realistic and historical fiction, fantasy, science fiction, mystery, informational, biography, autobiography, memoir and books of student choice. We cannot wait to see our students succeed. Seeing students so excited about reading is great! Can you do it?
