ANNOUNCEMENTS

Popcorn Friday is November 6!
*THIS WEEK*

Popcorn Fridays are a fun way to wrap up the school week and connect with our BCS community! Families are invited to gather on the backtop at dismissal to enjoy a popcorn treat, catch up with friends, meet other families, and build connections within our school community. It's a simple way to end the week together!

Register Your OBOB Team by November 13!

Registration for the BCS Oregon Battle of the Books (OBOB) program is in full swing, with 64 students already signed up! There's still time to join the fun! Registration is open through November 13, so be sure to register your 3rd - 8th grade reader before the deadline.

Students register individually, but families can request specific teammates during registration. We’ll also need coaches and event-day volunteers to help make this year's program a success!

Ready to register?
Visit the website linked below for the registration form and additional program details.

Looking for OBOB books?
Thanks to the PTA, every 3rd - 5th grade classroom now has three sets of this year's books, and Mr. Sundberg has a set available for middle school students.

If you'd like to purchase books for your child, please consider ordering through A Children's Place Bookstore https://www.achildrensplacebookstore.com/oregon-battle-of-the-books to support BCS. Be sure to mention BCS in the order comments so our school receives credit!

Help Keep OBOB Going!
We're also looking for one or more volunteers interested in helping lead the program! Brian Elliott, with Brooke's help, plans to coordinate OBOB this year and hopes to pass the torch to new leadership next year. This is a great opportunity to get involved, learn the ropes, and help keep this beloved BCS tradition going strong.

Interested in helping or have questions? Reach out to Brian Elliott at obob@beverlyclearyschool.org.
