🌍🛶 5th Grade Explorers on a Mission! 🛶🌍
5th graders embarked on an incredible journey through history! 📜 They’ve been learning all about the brave explorers who dared to venture into the unknown, discovering new lands and charting courses across the seas. But the adventure doesn’t stop there! ✨Their task? Convince the King 👑 to fund their bold expeditions. 💰 These young adventurers made their case for why their voyage will lead to the next great discovery! 🌟 #VikingVictories
BRV is looking for winter coaches. The hiring process can take time, so please reach out now. The seasons will be starting soon!
October is National Principals Month! This month, we honor our BRV principals for their significant impact on the success and well-being of our students and staff. Join us as we celebrate our principals throughout October. #ThankAPrincipal
Don't miss this great event!
Last year we had over 60 students participate in Jr. Vikings Basketball! We can't wait to see this program continue to grow. Registration forms will be due October 18th.
Our 3rd grade Vikings had a very busy week last week! During Target, the third graders practiced their perimeter skills. In Science, students learned how clouds are made. They added hot water to bags, and watched the water vapor collect on the sides of the bags. BRV graduate Chase Houser also visited our 3rd graders to discuss what it is like being a firefighter. He talked about fire safety since October is fire safety month. #VikingVictories
Unfortunately, our Jr. Vikings volleyball games will not be able to continue tonight due to a loss of power at the school. If possible, we will look at rescheduling for one night next week. Be safe this evening.
Our last day in Washington DC did not disappoint! We started our day visiting Ford's Theatre. Next, we fit in a quick trip to the Library of Congress before a tour of the US Capitol. We had some time to visit the Smithsonian museums, then a stop at the White House. Our day ended with a night time tour of the Jefferson Memorial, FDR Memorial, and ended our trip at the Martin Luther King Jr. Memorial. What a memorial experience for our students and their families!
Our first graders got to meet a firefighter yesterday! Thank you Chase Houser (a BRV graduate) for teaching us all about fire safety. We love having our alumni come back to teach us about their careers!
Washington DC day 2 was jam packed! Our day started at Arlington Cemetery where 4 of our students had the honor of presenting a wreath on behalf of BRV Elementary during the Changing of the Guard ceremony. Next was a quick trip to the Marine Corps War Memorial, followed by the National Archives, National Museum of the American Indian, and George Washington's home Mount Vernon. We ended the day with a night time tour of the Lincoln Memorial, World War II Memorial, Vietnam Veterans Memorial, and the Korean War Veterans Memorial. So much more to see tomorrow!
Our 5th and 6th graders have started their Washington DC adventure! Day 1 included a trip to Gettysburg. Students and chaperones enjoyed viewing the Cyclorama, and a guided tour through the battlefield.
Reminder: Tomorrow (9/19) is a Waiver Day. Students do not have in-person learning or e-learning tomorrow. Enjoy your day as our teachers complete required professional development opportunities.
📚📖This week, we started WIN (What I Need) in all classrooms. WIN is a time that teachers meet each student at their level for reading instruction. Mrs. Sharrett's first grade friends used light up pop tubes to segment new words! #VikingVictories

There will be an informational meeting tomorrow about details for the Washington DC trip at 6:00pm in the elementary cafeteria. All students and parents/guardians need to be in attendance to sign important paperwork that must be filled out before going. 21 days and counting! 🏛️🦅
Today our students started their Target groups. Target is our opportunity to meet each student at their level for math instruction. Math is so much FUN! ➕➖✖️➗
Kindergarten is learning all about GERMS🦠 in Science. They learned about Gary the Germ, and how germs live on our hands. They looked at their hands using the black light to see all of the icky germs. They sang the ABCs to wash their hands, and came back to look at their hands under the black light to see how well they cleaned. Needless to say they learned to keep the bad germs off with SOAP AND WATER! #VikingVictories
