Sunshine + Games = The Perfect Afternoon! BTE students brought the energy yesterday with outdoor games, laughter, and all the good vibes. Nothing beats fun in the sun with friends!
Shout-out to Mrs. Henry’s and Mrs. Antrim’s Class! These superstar students crushed last week’s attendance challenge and earned a sunny lunch in the BTE courtyard! Great job showing up and showing out!
Teacher Appreciation Week is in full bloom at BTE! We kicked things off with a Pancake Bar breakfast and gave our amazing teachers the chance to create their own floral arrangements from a gorgeous flower selection. A sweet and beautiful way to say THANK YOU!
We’re so proud of Liberty Middle School student Taylan Egly, who recently served as a Buddy for the Miracle League baseball program! The Miracle League creates a safe, inclusive environment for children with disabilities to enjoy the game of baseball — and Taylan stepped up with heart, compassion, and leadership. Way to represent our community with kindness and character on and off the field!
Life Skills Sweet Treats!
Our Life Skills students have been busy in the kitchen! They created a giant strawberry Pop-Tart and followed it up with Mini Pineapple Upside Down Cakes. The verdict from the class? “So good!” We love seeing these students build confidence and skills through fun, hands-on learning!
