Bastian Parents, Guardians, and Students, 
We've got a relatively calm week coming, which is nice for a change! Please just be aware that we're shaking up our normal schedule this week with a Teacher Professional Development Day on Friday. For you, that means there won't be any school!
Coats for Kids:
We want to make sure your child is warm this winter season. If you need a coat for your child and would like the school to provide one, please do not hesitate to let us know!
Cereal Drive:
We’re collecting unopened cereal boxes for our buddy school! Our goal is to collect 600 boxes, which we’ll use to make a domino track through the school for students to watch. The more boxes we get, the bigger the domino track and the happier we can make our friends at our buddy school! The class that brings in the most cereal boxes will earn a cereal party! We’ll collect those boxes from November 16th to the 20th.
Bastian Spirit Wear: Bastian Spirit Wear will be available from November 9th through the 24th. Items that you order will be available before December 16th. You’ll find the link to order your gear below:
No School on Friday:
As a reminder, there will be no school on Friday for students. Thursday will still follow a normal bell schedule, and school will release at 3:35 p.m.
Chik-Fil-A Spirit Night:
Mark your calendars now, because on November 17th from 6:00-8:00 p.m. Chik-Fil-A will be hosting us during our next spirit night! Bastian will earn 10% of all sales credited to our spirit night. All you’ll need to do is mention Bastian Elementary in the drive-thru, in-store, or as a comment in the mobile app!
PTA President Elect:
Our PTA has an immediate opening for the position of President-Elect.We are looking to elect our next president for the upcoming 2027–2028 and 2028–2029 school years. Having a President-Elect is critical because it allows the incoming leader to learn the ropes, and ensure a seamless transition for our school community.
If you are interested in stepping into this rewarding role, or if you would like to nominate someone you know who would be a great fit, please reach out directly to Ambree Kimball at kimball.ambree@gmail.com.
Thank you for your continued support of our students and school community!
