BWS/PTO EVENTS
Last week’s “Sock Hop” was a huge success.  Check out the pictures at the end of this
newsletter.  And be sure to mark your calendars for the next family event -- Our annual
Art Show and Spaghetti Dinner is scheduled for Friday, May 18th.  Gift baskets will be
raffled, a yummy dinner will be served, and your child’s artwork will be professionally
displayed across the street at the Becket Arts Center. Don’t miss it!

BWS CORE VALUES
These are the Becket Washington School core values:

I will be responsible.
I will be respectful and kind.
I will be safe.
I will be an active learner.

In an effort to show our students what these values actually mean, and what they look like in
action, Mrs. Welts has worked with the Student Leaders to put together a video around the
first one, I will be responsible.  Take a look at the video here, and watch for more coming
from WBWS around all the values. The students did a wonderful job.

GRANDPARENTS RAISING CHILDREN
The group, “Grandparents Raising Children” is a good resource for any grandparent in this
situation.  The group has different speakers and addresses different issues each week. For
