Field Day
Field Day was so much fun for our students. Thank you for you to all our volunteers who helped make this year’s Gr. 1-4 Field Day a success. It was a great day for celebrating physical activity, working with and supporting others, and having tons of fun!! So many people throughout our community played a role in making this event a special experience for our students.

Destination Imagination Congratulations!

Bedford DI in Top 10!!
Last week four teams from Bedford DI traveled to Kansas City as part of Team New Hampshire for the Global Finals tournament.  All 4 teams brought a stellar presentation finishing Top 40.  However, a shout out to The Mindblowers from McKelvie Intermeidate School who placed 8th out of 65 teams from 17 countries, and made it onto the Top 10 Champions of the World. This is a tremendous achievement for both Bedford and New Hampshire DI. Bedford DI are so proud of all of our teams who brought solutions to both Regionals and State tournaments. We would like to thank all of our volunteer adults who acted as Team Managers for these kids this season, as without them, these teams would not exist.  To all our students, thank you for a wonderful season of collaboration and creative problem solving.

Bedford DI would like to thank all of you who donated and helped with fundraising efforts.  Also, please note that the Ecosmith Shoe Drive finishes up today, but you can continue to drop shoes, clothing, all fabrics, and stuffed animals in our Ecosmith bins year round in the school parking lots!!!! 

Girls on the Run Food Drive
Thank you to everyone who contributed to the Girls on the Run Team 2 Food Drive!  It was a huge success!  We have 18 large boxes of food headed to the Bedford Food Pantry!  Thank you!

Reminders

Summer Opportunity
We are excited to share the attached poster for our Suzuki Summer Chamber Group at the Manchester Community Music School. It's a great way to keep students playing their string instrument through the summer with a very low time commitment at a low cost. Tuition assistance is available if need arises. 

2019-20 School Calendar
The School Board has approved the 2019-20 School Calendar. Please note The first day for students will be August 27th and the last day of school will be June 12.  In the event of snow days, the first 5 we have will not be made up so unless we have 6 or more snow days we will be no later than June 12.   This should bring some more predictability to the end of the year for families.
