We hope all our Busbee families are enjoying your Thanksgiving! Here's a few "turkey projects" that our 4k-1st grade students worked on this year! #ThankfulAtBusbee 🐾💙🦃
Next for #ThankfulAtBusbee is our PTO who does so much for us!
This week they provided our soup/grilled cheese lunch and all the fixings. They also worked with Ms. Jackie Busbee to sponsor the pies. 🥧🍴
Last week, they sponsored and worked the ice cream party for all of our students as a reward for meeting our goal for the Spooky to Be Hungry Food Drive 🍦🥫
Big hugs to our Busbee PTO! We are thankful for you!
We at Busbee have some catching up to do on our posting, and Thanksgiving Break is the perfect time for that! We are going to try to post 24 things (since it's 2024) we are thankful for over the break!
Be sure to look for #ThankfulAtBusbee posts over the next five days 💙🐾
Next up for our #ThankfulAtBusbee is our 6 nominees for the Giving Even More Employee of the Year! A school takes a village of people to run smoothly, and these staff members are the backbone of our school! Without them we would probably fall apart 🫠
Please join us in celebrating our excellent staff: Briana Leach (SPED), Shelly Leach (Interventionist), Helen Ware (Food Service), Edith Walker-Reed (Front Office), not pictured: Caitlin Poole (Nurse) and Stefanie Douglas (Bookkeeper). 🌟🐾💙🌟
We will start our #ThankfulAtBusbee posts with our 5 nominees for Teacher of the Year! These teachers are SUPERSTARS of Busbee, and we are thankful for all they do for our students and community! Join us in celebrating our teachers Amber Payne (5k), Jennifer Starnes (2nd), Julie Corbett (2nd), Lynn Sawyer (5k), and Tammy Swartz (4th) 🌟🐾💙🌟
Our Busbee pledge leaders this week and next are Khatari, HJ, and Dallis Kate. These third graders were recognized by the teachers for always doing a great job saying the pledges! 🐾❤️🇺🇸💙

This week's pledge leaders were Bryson, Kylee, and Chaunce. They were wonderful!! They said the pledges slowly and deliberately, and the entire school was able to keep up! Great job Bulldogs! 🐾💙🇺🇸

Busbee had visitors today from WP Rawl Farms! They brought each student a produce bag, which is always a big hit! We greatly appreciate their generosity and continued support of our students 💙🐾
Busbee Busses 455 and 453 will be late this afternoon. Bus 453 is approximately 80 minutes late.

So many of our Busbee Bulldog students wore purple or red, white, and blue 🇺🇸 today in honor of Military Children. We are so proud of our students and our Military Bulldogs! 💜💜💜
Busbee's Third Grade has been taken over by turkeys! Students were supposed to write from the point of view of the turkey, but they got so into character that they wrote persuasive pieces about saving the turkeys! We love their writing and their creativity and wanted to share all of these with you!
Busbee Bulldogs! Tomorrow is Purple Up! Day in honor of our students who have parents and family members serving or who have served in the United States Military. We will also have our Veteran's Day program at 1 pm tomorrow, November 15. If you don't have purple, please wear red/white/blue! 🇺🇸❤️💙

Ms. Swartz's class did a writing lesson with bubble gum! Each student drew a random text structure and then wrote a paragraph about bubble gum using that structure. They also got to try licorice gum! Way to go Busbee Bulldogs! 🐾💙
Look at this super idea in Ms. Jeffcoat's class--it's a Thankful Tree! The students were focused on writing really great sentences about what they are thankful for. Look for more wonderful lessons to be posted soon! 🐾💙
It's time to highlight another great Busbee Bulldog! Sebastian is pictured here with his teachers, Ms. Sawyer and Ms. Bourne. His favorite animal is the cheetah, his favorite movie is Spider Man, and he is working hard to learn his sight-words. If he could have any superpower, it would be to have super sonic speed. Way to go Sebastian! We are so happy to have you with us at Busbee 🐾💙
