Former students, staff, and community members can join in celebrating 25 years of educating students.  Around 4:30 pm an informal gathering will take place in the cafeteria to Welcome and Thank former staff for their years of service to BBES.  Come view the just opened Time Capsule, PTA slideshow, newly created 25th Birthday Scrapbook, and many other BBES memorabilia.    Guests will be able to tour our newly renovated building!

In addition to the Open House, all BBES students will participate in a celebration at 10:00 am on April 4th to unveil the contents of a time capsule and a tree dedication to honor 25 years.   Leading up to this celebration, students learned about Bollman Bridge history and collected school supplies, canned foods, clothing and toiletries for local charitable organizations. In addition, students participated in the “25 Acts of Kindness Project” by doing kind gestures for others.  The children documented their kind acts on colored paper linked together in chains streaming down from the ceiling of the school lobby. From dress-up days to quizzes on cultural trends 25 years ago, the students embraced this special moment in Bollman Bridge Elementary School history.
