Alive and Well

BYKOTA is still alive and well at the Village School as we are well into our second semester. Check out this new bulletin board in the main hallway that is promoting BYKOTA acts. The names of students (grades PK-4) who have been caught being kind are added daily to this board. Students can be nominated by their teacher, VAES staff members, and fellow students. Check it out, and students, remember to share with your teacher BYKOTA acts you witness! Thanks Mrs. Wineland-Pherson for getting this bulletin board up and running!


We also have two new banners in the gymnasium that promote our We Are His Hands theme, as well as BYKOTA. If you haven't seen them yet, you will have opportunity to see them during Winter Fest on Feb. 4! Thanks to Mrs. Kurtz for this great idea and ordering the banners. We also want to thank Rich Baldwin and Lloyd Condon for hanging the banners!
