On the Friday before Thanksgiving break, the BPES Newcomb team played a game against the teachers at the school. The teachers won the game. After that the teachers played a friendly Alabama vs. Auburn game. The game was very close with the Alabama team coming out on top. It was a great way to start Thanksgiving break.






Students and Parents from 2nd and 3rd Grade participated in an Arts Integration Night. Together they particpated in an integrated arts lesson and listened to the story "Alba and the Ocean Clean Up." They contributed to a school-wide project we're building for our end-of-year Fine Arts Night. #FamilyEngagement #ArtsIntegration #FineArtsNight
