🖍Today in Miss Mattson’s Elementary Art class, the 3rd graders had the pleasure of hosting four special visitors from MRCI in Mankato. Together, they worked on a fun "Alphabet Soup" project using oil pastels, making it a creative and memorable experience for everyone!🍵🖍

This week at Blue Earth Area Schools, we recognize the incredible paraprofessionals we are fortunate to have here at BEA.
Superintendent Mandy Fletcher sent a staff email earlier in the week that sums up our appreciation perfectly:
"As the child of a parent who worked as a paraprofessional for many years, I deeply understand the dedication, care, and effort our paras put forth every single day to support our BEA students. Their commitment and heart make a meaningful difference in the lives of so many.
While this week has been officially declared Paraprofessional Recognition Week by the Governor, our gratitude for the talent, compassion, and hard work of our paras extends far beyond just these few days. They are an integral part of what makes BEA—and our students—thrive.
Thank you to our wonderful paras for your contributions to making BEA such a special place!"

UPDATE REGARDING THE RESCHEDULED WINTER CHEER CLINIC:
On Monday Evening, January 27, at Blue Earth Area High School Gym, by 5:45 pm, we ask you to bring your Cheer Clinic Athlete to the High School Unity Hall Commons, so we can have a full refresher practice, before the game. Please have your athlete dressed in black shorts/capri’s, TENNIS/ATHLETIC SHOES, along with the clinic t-shirt, and make sure they have their shaker poms. Hair should be IN A PONYTAIL, with their ribbon, and PLEASE NO JEWELRY. Please make sure your Athlete has eaten PRIOR to the practice time.
After the athletes have practiced/warmed up, they will sit together, in the stands, as a group, when the game starts, about 7: 15/7:30pm. During this time, the Athletes will be cheering on the Basketball Team, from the stands, along with the Blue Earth Area Varsity Cheerleaders. The expectation is that they Sit, Watch and Cheer. No running around to do this or that, get extra food, etc. They are allowed to have their water bottles with them. Please help your Athlete understand this. The Cheerleaders and Athletes will line up in Unity Hall, with 3 minutes left in the first half.
When the first half of the game is complete and the Basketball players and Officials have left the court, the Athletes will Spirit on, and provide a fun-filled half-time show. K-4-5-6 Graders will perform on the Home Side; Grades 1-2-3 will perform on the Players Bench Side. When their performance is finished, they will be lining up to form a tunnel for the BEA Varsity Basketball Players, by the southeast end of the court.
When the Basketball Players have completed entering the court, at the end of the half, the Cheer Clinic Athletes are free to leave with their Guardian.
We hope this has been a fun experience for you and your Athlete! Please consider participating in our next Clinic. Watch the Community Education booklet for details!
Thank you for the fun!
Allie, Tiffany, Layla, Juli, Lexi, Vanessa, Liberty, Lily, Kenzi, Alexis and Coach Rachel
The Blue Earth Area Buccaneer Cheerleaders!
Good luck to all the participants! 🐝

Digging into Learning...Literally!
Mrs. Dressler's Begindergarten class traded in their crayons for chisels and became pint-sized paleontologists for the day! After unearthing some dinosaurs, these young explorers made their own fossils using salt dough. Talk about a dino-mite learning experience!
We can't wait to see what other discoveries they'll make this year...or what kind of messes they'll dig up!
