March 9 - Update

We now have a link to the blog on the elementary website!  Hopefully this will make it easier to check in to what is going on at Blair Oaks Elementary!

We had the KOMU Channel 8 News in the building today.  They were talking with Dr. Jones and myself about summer school and the dilemma we are in currently in the funding.  They also spoke to Mrs. Downing and filmed some of the kindergarten lunch period.  The reporter said the show should air at 5,6 and 10pm tonight!  Check us out!

Blair Oaks Elementary, along with the other schools in our district and the county, has become a Character Plus School.  We have been doing many activities with Character Education in our building for the last several years and this will unify all of the county schools.  We are excited about the intiative and look forward to involving more people in with our Character words.  Tomorrow Beth Isenberg - first grade teacher, Aimee Schmidt - third grade teacher, Rachel Cole - school counselor, Theresa Villmer  - Blair Oaks Elementary parent  and myself will be attending the Character Plus training.  Look forward to hearing more about Character Plus in the future and ways that you may be involved!
