The Power of Optimism
   


I hope you had a wonderful weekend and enjoyed the beautiful weather.  We are off to a great start this school year and it's hard to believe that we are now in the month of October.  The power of optimism continues to be in the air.  Our sports teams are in full force and representing BT in a great way.  Don't forget to come out and continue to build relationships with your child's teachers by attending the parent- teacher conferences.  

Also, the spread the word about our first Falcon Parent University.  We are pleased to welcome Chris Lubbe from South Africa, who will share his story of optimism and hope as well as share stories about his time with Nelson Mandela on Wednesday at 6:30 in the PAC.

Have an awesome week!
