LETS SHOW SOME LOVE

First day of school just wasn’t quite the same without Ms. Stevens. ❤️

After 25+ years of loving students, pouring into families, and showing up for countless first days, this year looks a little different. She may not be sitting in her classroom with us just yet, but please know her spot is still saved, her name is still being said, and her students are already excited to meet the teacher they’ve heard so much about. 🥹

So, since we can’t send her 25+ years’ worth of first-day hugs in person, we’re sending them virtually! 🤗

Drop a 🤗 in the comments and help us fill Ms. Stevens’ first day with a whole lot of love!

Ms. Stevens, we miss you, we’re cheering you on, and we cannot wait until you’re back where you belong. ❤️🐎

Your classroom is waiting for you!

The BH After-School Program is a unique and enriching experience for your student. Our program serves Riser Elementary, Lenwil Elementary, and Riser Middle and runs Monday through Thursday 3:00 to 5:45 PM. Students will experience the love of God and have access to extended learning experiences through enrichment activities, life, skills, homework help, STEM activities, Bible studies, and more! Snack and dinner will be provided each day. Each campus is staffed with a lead teacher, certified teachers, and college-aged mentors who all strive to see your student “Loved, Educated and Transformed” throughout the school year.

Questions about tomorrow??

Tomorrow is Meet the Teacher for 4-5 grades.
Parents come with their kids tomorrow meet the teacher, see their classroom, get important paperwork, and drop off school supplies. Then I'll see you back for our first full day Wednesday.
You can come anytime between 7:25-3.
There was some confusion about when the 1st day was but we have adjusted that for Wednesday if you have not seen our schoolwide post on dojo.

Looking forward to meeting you all tomorrow & for school to kick on Wednesday!
❤️❤️
