We seem to have run out of school year Sundays for our Staff Spotlight! So today we shine the spotlight on our Community Education Department!
Community Ed is the umbrella that covers our Early Childhood program (Discovery Place Preschool and ECFE), Adult Basic Education, child care (Little Giants, Jumpstart, and Be A Kid), the Youth Development program (Peer Helpers, DARE, and more), and our adult and youth enrichment classes. They provide quality programs to learners of all ages and abilities, and expand the involvement of community members who have skills and knowledge to share.
Thank you to our Community Ed staff for your hard work and dedication to our community!

We seem to have run out of school year Sundays for our Staff Spotlight!
So today we shine the spotlight on our Director of Curriculum and Instruction!
Important duties of the Director of Curriculum and Instruction include creating the instructional goals, methods, materials, and the assessments.
Curriculum specialists need to explain teaching strategies, changes to curriculum design, and the reasons for those changes, so teachers feel invested. They also need to offer constructive feedback. This requires excellent communication skills and the ability to form positive working relationships.
Thank you, Ms. Schmidt, for your hard work and dedication to our students!

So today we shine our spotlight on our Title 1 teachers!
Title 1 teachers provide support and tailor education programs to help our students meet academic standards at their grade level. They understand the specific circumstances of each of our individual student’s struggles and works with them to inspire, instill confidence, and increase their self-motivation.
We thank them for their hard work and dedication to our students!

We seem to have run out of school year Sundays for our Staff Spotlight!
So today we shine the spotlight on our hardworking technology department! From assistance with computers, iPads, and Smartboards to their expertise in websites, passwords, and social media, we would be lost without their knowledge and help. So much of our daily routine has a technology element to it, we don't even know the extent to which our tech department contributes to make our days run as smoothly as possible.
Thank you for ALL you do!

A standing ovation for our 2023 EDDY Award winner, Betty Goraczkowski! The EDDY Award goes to a non-certified staff member at BEA Schools, nominated and voted for by all staff.
Here is an excerpt from Betty's glowing nomination:
"Betty always goes above and beyond to help people out whenever there is a need. She works hard and shows pride in what she has done. Betty has dedicated herself to Blue Earth Area Schools- initially as a paraprofessional and then moving on to being a member of the custodial team at the high school. Betty does not hesitate to support the school first by making sure the areas she is designated are clean, but quickly assists with other areas when her custodial teammates are absent...She offers her services when she hears of teacher needs. She comes in early and stays late whenever needed - taking on responsibilities to make events happen."
Congrats, Betty; you deserve this award!
Frankie says "Farewell for now, fellow Buccaneers!"
Happy last day of school, and enjoy your summer!
The last few days of school are jam-packed with exciting activities for our students! The fifth graders had a beautiful day at the swimming pool yesterday.
