BES MINI-THON KICKS OFF ON MAY 9, MON.
The BES Mini-THON kicks off on Monday, May 9 and culminates with a dance party on Friday, May 20. Mini-THON offers an incredible opportunity for members of the Beaumont community to make a difference! Our students will be giving back to the world and fighting for something that is so much bigger than themselves. All of the children are encouraged to do good deeds to raise money for MiniTHON! View flyer for more ideas. Money will be collected in your child’s classroom from May 10 - 20. You can also make a direct donation online to reach Beaumont's goal of raising $5000. Don't forget to have your child bring in a plain t-shirt to design for the Mini-THON by Monday, May 9. View flyer for more details.
THANK YOU...
A special thanks to the HSA's Cultural Arts Committee, Jen Bracco and volunteers for making Residency Week with Walnut Street Theater a success. We hope the children enjoyed the interactive sessions about Aesop's Fables. Thank you also to Kristen Baker, Colleen Mahoney and Kathy Moynagh for coordinating the Spring Plant Sale, just in time for Mother's Day. Happy Mother's Day to all.
