Bells Corners PS

BCPS students are actively engaging in inquiry based learning. You can observe this in our Kindergarten classes when they are in their outdoor learning spaces. K to 6 classes are given the opportunities to invent, create new items or improve ideas. Students consider the following questions: What will I create? What will I solve? What will I learn? How will I make an impact? Educators foster students’ curiosity and creativity in exploring ways that their inquiry work will support them in the future.

It is hard to believe that we are at the end of April. BCPS students celebrated their achievements at our monthly virtual assembly. Students are recognizing that achieving a new learning goal is a process that take multiple opportunities to practice and this was clearly demonstrated in every class presentation. Our MFI5/6 students recognized the completion of Ramadan and created a description presentation about the importance of Eid ul Fitr for our BCPS students and families! This week our Junior students participated in a 2SLGBTQ+ virtual assembly. A District member of the 2SLGBTQ+ team, discussed the use of pronouns, names, identity and the connection to the human rights code regarding gender identity and gender expression.

We are VERY excited to be launching our 3rd Annual Online Auction to help us raise much-needed funds to go towards the kinder yard and other school improvements. Our amazing community businesses have been very generous in their donations and there are so many great prizes to bid on!
