Happy February to you!  I can not believe how quickly time is going.  Since it's all things green these days, we decided to turn the Falcon Flyer Green for the Eagles!

Enjoy this Falcon Flyer and remember to check out our Facebook page to see more photos that we just could not fit into this tiny space.  

Have a great weekend! Stay warm and I am not paying any attention to anything Punxsutawney Phil said or did.  I can't wait for Spring!  There are only 45 days until spring.  (Not that I am counting! LOL)

Don't forget to check out Tricky Tray tonight!  Enjoy the Superbowl!

Congratulations to the BT Robotics Club!

 
The school community is excited to congratulate the members of the Robotics Club who competed in the First Lego League competition last weekend. The Middle Scho ol Gear Heads group was awarded the Core Values Award for displaying extraordinary enthusiasm and spirit. They were also recognized for their commitment to shared goals, strong communication, effective problem solving and excellent time management. Finally, this award recognized the Gear Heads team members for showing each other respect at all times, recognizing that both friendly competition and mutual gain are possible both on and off the playing field.

The Middle School Maximum Force group was given the Judges Award, placed 3rd overall at the event and have qualified to participate in the championship event at Rowan University later this winter.

We also recognize Ms. DeFiore's efforts for her dedicated support and guidance to the team throughout their club season along with Mr. Rob Bangs from Robotech who has served as a community partner and co-facilitator to the club. Congratulations, all.
