🤩🎉Congratulations to Kelly Bleess and Jim Wirkus, winners of the K-7 Buc Pride Awards for March! Both were nominated by multiple colleagues for their efforts and leadership.
Here are a few of the comments below to highlight them.
Mrs. Bleess::
⭐️"It's Kelly Bleess. She is literally made of magic and she shares her magic with everyone and she CARES so much about all of our kids, AND our staff! Kelly deserves to be highlighted for everything she does for our students AND staff, AND families."
⭐️"Kelly goes above and beyond for the students and staff at BEA Elementary. She is always available for anyone, at any time, and has a listening ear. She is kind and compassionate to all. She is professional and always willing to assist with a behavior plan or simply brainstorm ideas. We are lucky she is on our staff at BEA Elementary."
Mr. Wirkus:
⭐️"He consistently goes above and beyond to ensure the safety and comfort of both staff and students, whether inside the building or around the school grounds. He dedicates extra time to fix water pipes after hours, arrives early to clean and treat sidewalks, and ensures that areas are still maintained and covered even when staff members are absent. He also enjoys engaging with students in the hallway, always taking the time to listen whenever they have something to share."
⭐️"He goes above and beyond to make sure his crew is taken care of and the kids have a great place to come to everyday. He does the heavy lifting for us all."
⭐️"Jim should be recognized not only for the effortless transition into his new role this year, but Jim had a very busy start to the month with being short staffed due to illness with his custodial staff. His communication with staff during this time ensured that the building was still well maintained. He also came in and worked late into the night to repair the pipe burst, which also happened to be part of the main plumbing line. Without his quick thinking we would've lost valuable instructional time with our students!"
Congrats to both of our very deserving winners!

Mrs. Volz’s STEM class has been learning about natural vs synthetic polymers. They had the opportunity to learn about the science behind these natural polymers, and then they got to build their own natural polymer out of sodium alginate, a type of seaweed! They experimented with different combinations of household texture substances (aloe vera, pancake syrup, honey, and corn syrup), various coloring agents (Kool-aid powder, food coloring, and fruit juices), and the sodium alginate to create the strongest polymer. It was a hands-on, creative, and sometimes messy adventure in chemistry!
