Successful Culver's night for our student council!  They were able to fundraise just about 350 dollars!  Nice job everyone!  
  
Novalee, Campbell, and Samara enjoyed supporting at Culver's too!  (my girls, Matt Behringer's son)

 Southern Lakes Anthology Breakfast and Ceremony at Dyer!  First picture is 7th grade followed by 8th grade.  


Summer Survivor presentation in the auditorium with Jodi Peterson and Matt Nee (teachers at BHS and oversee Summer Survivor)  over 100 of our 8th grade students were in attendance! 

Cinco de Mayo was this past Friday and students in Advanced Spanish created and decorated their own pinatas!  Awesome job to all of our students!  Loved seeing the creativity!  







24 of our 8th grade students attended a Career Expo at the Kenosha Gateway Campus on May 5 - the students LOVED the experience! Thank you Gateway for setting up this event and for providing the opportunity for our students.  





 Our final spring Orchestra Concert of the year was a great performance.  The 5-8 grade students participated in a Star Wars theme and even added glow sticks to their bows and played Star Wars in the dark... mimicking lightsabers!
