Hey everybody! BUSD teachers are going to be out on parade in the coming weeks. Step outside to wave and say HI because we are all missing you!
Horticulture’s plants are doing well, despite not having the love and attention from their plant parents! Green peppers, jalapeños, peas, lettuce, and tomatoes will all be ripe soon.

In the news! A great read during the slow sports time.
We came across this free resource from Audible. Your students can listen to books and you don't have to set up an account!

At this point, we are unsure how long the school closure will last. In order to best serve our students, the district needs to gauge how much access our students have to computers and the internet. Please help us by answering the questions below.

This is what it looks like the prep 1,250 meals! Great work ladies!
All of Mrs. Marlow’s students have been invited to join Google Classroom. If a student has not joined, please do so. The invitation should have been made through each student’s school email. Thank you.
To all who are receiving meal deliveries: Given the current "shelter in place" proclamation from the Governor, the district is shifting to delivering meals twice a week. Monday will include food for Mon/Tues. Wednesday will include food for Wed/Thur/Fri. We are now serving over 200 kids and happy to do so!
Part of today's governor's address included announcing that the school closure is extended until at least April 7. We will continue with food delivery for the duration of the closure. As we move through next week, we will further develop plans to help with the continuity of learning and will share more information. We miss our kids. Stay healthy.
Even though we are out of school, we can still connect and join one another in having a little fun! Each day, we will post a picture on our Facebook page--just add your photo to our post to join the fun. I can't wait to see what you're up to!
Update: Resources available.

Lonely. Schools aren't supposed to be this empty on a Tuesday in March. We miss our kiddos! #ILschoolstories
The first day of non attendance for our students and our fabulous cooks were busy preparing lunches this morning. Meals are now out for delivery by our fine crew of bus drivers and volunteers.
