From innovative projects being featured in local news to celebrating student excellence in the classroom, this week has truly shown what our students can accomplish.

We see every day that when our schools and our families partner together, our students thrive. Thank you for your continued support in emphasizing the importance of attendance, encouraging academic excellence, and championing our students' success.

Good News: Free School Meals Will Continue!
Dear Parents and Guardians,
We want to provide an important update and some reassurance regarding school meals.
Based on the latest guidance from the Michigan Department of Education, we are happy to confirm that Breckenridge Community Schools will continue to provide free breakfast and lunch to all students.
What This Means for Your Family:
Free Meals Continue: All students will continue to receive their school breakfast and lunch at no charge, just as they have been since the start of the school year. You do not need to worry about any immediate changes to meal service or cost. Please note: ale carte items at MS/HS do not fall under this service.
We've Got You Covered: We understand the state budget process is ongoing. We want to assure you that our district is committed to providing this service, and we will cover the costs to ensure all students continue to eat for free.
Future Funding: Once the State of Michigan's budget is officially approved, any state funding for school nutrition programs will be applied retroactively.
Please Still Complete the Benefit Application:
We must continue to collect and process the Education and Nutrition Benefit Applications (or Education Benefit Forms) from all families. Completing this form is essential, as it helps us maintain accurate eligibility records needed for our nutrition program claims and can qualify the district for additional federal funding and grants.
We appreciate your support and are dedicated to providing reliable, nutritious meals for all our students. If you have any questions or need help with the benefit application, please contact the school office (or Nutrition Services).

Sincerely,


Wade Slavik, BCS Superintendent

Hello Parents,

Today, your child is bringing home a take home lanyard letting you know about a safe and easy way for our school to raise funds for essential tools our students and teachers need to succeed.
The Reading for Education fundraiser is 100% online so there is NO face-to-face selling, handling money, or delivering products. Your participation will take less than 12 minutes, and there are exciting prizes to make it fun for the students.

Here is all you need to do to participate:
1. Go to https://www.rfe.net/sid.t?0000291273 to sign up.
2. Send form emails inviting family, friends and co-workers to support your child.
3. Return the Lanyard with the Student Prize Code to school for your child to get their fun participation prize.

Be sure to ask your child for the take home lanyard tonight. Your participation will make a difference for our school and teachers!

Thanks,
Breckenridge Elementary School

It's more than just a flickering flame... it's a chemical reaction in action! ๐Ÿ”ฅ

Our chemistry students kicked off their lab work today with a classic experiment: observing a candle. Their mission? To become scientific detectives and identify the reactants (what goes in, like wax and oxygen) and the products (what comes out, like light, heat, and invisible gases).

Itโ€™s a brilliant, hands-on way to see how chemistry transforms the world around us, one molecule at a time! โœจ

๐Ÿ“šโœจ Parents and students, regular attendance is crucial for success! Our Parent-Student Handbook (p. 35) emphasizes that attending school daily fosters a strong work ethic and ensures students donโ€™t miss key lessons. Excused absences (e.g., illness, appointments) are allowed with proper documentation. Chronic absenteeism is defined as 10 or more unexcused absences (excluding medically excused, school-sponsored, or pre-arranged absences). Absenteeism will impact grades and opportunities. Letโ€™s prioritize showing up on time, ready to learn! Attached are two images of information to keep your child healthy and in school.๐Ÿš€ #HuskiePride #SuccessStartsHere
