🦋 Metamorphosis Magic in Ms. Dittamore's 4th Grade Class! 🦋

You won't believe what our Bobcats got to witness this week! Three monarch caterpillars in Ms. Dittamore's classroom completed one of nature's most incredible transformations right before their eyes — spinning silk buttons, shedding their skin one final time, and emerging as beautiful jade-green chrysalises! 😲✨

Talk about science coming to life! Our students didn't just read about metamorphosis in a book — they watched it happen. Now the countdown begins... in about 10-14 days, these chrysalises will crack open and three monarch butterflies will take flight! 🧡🖤

Stay tuned, Bobcats — we'll keep you posted when our newest fliers make their grand debut! 🐛➡️🦋

💗🧢 Mae's Miracle — Beecher City Bobcats Show Their Support! 🧢💗

This week, our Beecher City Grade School students and staff came together in a big way — wearing pink and their favorite hats to show love and support for Mae, who was recently diagnosed with mitochondrial disease. Every student and staff member also brought in a donation to help support Mae and her family during this journey.

We are Bobcat Strong, and we are Mae Strong! 💪💗

Thank you to our incredible school family for showing what community really means. #MaesMiracle #BobcatStrong #PinkAndHatsDay

☕✨ What a way to wrap up the week at Beecher City Grade School! Our incredible teachers were surprised this morning with lattes and lemonades from 7 Brew — and let's just say the smiles said it all! 🙌

The first full week of school is in the books, and it has been busy. Students have been participating in tree id, Chopped - art edition, coloring cells, reading, and PE outside. Also, we have added sneak peek pictures of the east end hallway and gym floor (panoramic picture).

Attention Grade School Parents:

If your child is a parent pick-up student, they'll be bringing home a letter today along with a yellow or pink card labeled with your last name. Please take a moment to read through the letter, and don't hesitate to reach out with any questions.

I'm confident this small change will help our pick-up line move faster and keep our students even safer.

Dental bus forms will be sent home with students today or tomorrow. If you are interested in your student receiving dental services, please fill out forms and have them turned into the office by Aug. 28th.

JH Softball, JH Baseball, HS Baseball, and HS Golf will have pictures taken at BCHS Thursday, Aug. 20th. Please have students bring their uniforms tomorrow.
