Bedwell Friday Folder
 
August 24, 2012

 

Hello at home,  

 

As the days of summer wind down, Bedwell staff has been working tirelessly to ready the building for our VIPs, your children. Kudos to all for their herculean efforts. I am sure you are all eagerly anticipating the first day of school, and so are we!

 

A packet containing important information was mailed to students' homes on August 22nd.  Students will also receive an additional packet of information on the first day of school.  Please be sure to return any information requested by the date indicated.  The pink emergency cards and the dismissal forms should be returned on the first day of school.

 

Warm regards, 
 

Gretchen Dempsey

Assistant Principal
