Quote of the Cycle
A genius is a talented person who does his homework.
~Thomas A. Edison
In class we are learning from “Stone Fox.” If your child does not have access to this book please prepare one, or contact your Homeroom teacher.
We had a very successful Flea Market on BIBA Day. Grade 3 earned more than ¥8,000 in cash. With even more paid digitally. That’s a lot of books for rural schools! Good Work!
Upcoming Event: House Week!
Dress up in the different Colors to earn points for your House!
October 14~18
A Review from the Parent Student Handbook:
This cycle we will continue with the Code of Conduct section of the Parent and Student Handbook and look at the Rs in turn. We will look at Responsibility this cycle.
CODE OF CONDUCT
All members of the BIBA community are to conduct themselves with regard to four overarching attributes and skills of Respect, Responsibility, Rigor, and Relationships.
