Basketball
is in full swing! 59 students
(almost half the school!) are
participating in either Lady Bears Girls Basketball, Bears A Team, Bears B Team
or Cubs Intramural Teams! The season

 The Pumpkin Patch gave students an opportunity to show off their creativity by decorating
pumpkins!
 The Fairburn Fire Department brought their Fire Safety House and educated
students in ways that they can help prevent fires and stay safe.
 The Fire Department, led by Captain Bo,
instructed students as they entertained them with a puppet and clown show. This was extra special to us because
the clown (who is also a fireman), is a former Bedford student, Stephen Smith.

 The first Bedford Dasher 5K and Elf Run was held
on December 12. Fairburn mayor

and promoted the event! Everyone's
efforts added up to a HUGE success.
The Parent Coffees at Bedford
