Spring conferences are Thursday, March 5th. The PTO provides meals for teachers that spend their evenings at Ben Franklin meeting with families.

In order to provide these meals, the PTO relies on donations from our families. Donations can be made through School Pay, Venmo or you can sign up to bring an item at https://signup.com/go/fgdBXhQ

Please have all items to school by Wednesday, March 4th.

Thank you for helping to support our BFMS teachers and staff!

Looking forward to this fun event!! 🎄

🎄 You’re Invited to Our 1st Annual Holiday Open House! 🎄

We’d love for you to join us as we celebrate the warmth and wonder of the season together with our BFMS family. Bring the whole crew for an evening filled with connection, laughter, and plenty of holiday cheer.

To support Liz’s Closet, we’re inviting guests to bring a non-perishable food item. Each donation earns you a ticket to vote in our coveted Holiday Door Decoration Competition—this year’s theme is “The Most Punderful Time of Year!” 🌟

We can’t wait to welcome you and share in the joy of this special tradition-in-the-making.
