Kindergarten Roundup

Our annual Kindergarten Roundup will be held Wednesday, March 2 at 7:00 p.m. If you know of a youngster who will be five years of age before September 1, please pass the information on.

Lost BAS Jacket

A youth size 5/6 with Chloe Chappell’s name on the label is missing. Please check your child’s jacket to see if it was accidently picked up. The same size jacket, without a name, is being held in the office to be exchanged when Chloe’s jacket is returned.

Snow Plan Reminder

Just a reminder: In case of inclement weather we will follow the plans announced for Prince George’s County. Please do not call the school, teachers, or staff. Pleaselisten to your local television or radio stations for their announcement. Kindergarten students will follow the plan for the whole school as we have a full-day kindergarten. In the event that the public schools are closed and there is a question about whether BAS will be open, listen to WTOP (103.9 FM/103.5 FM/820 AM) or WMAL (630 AM). Remember, when school closes early there is no after school care.

Grandparent’s Day

BAS is excited to announce Grandparent’s Day 2011 is coming early this Spring. Please mark your calendars (grandpa and grandma’s too) for

Friday, April 8, from 9:00 am – 1:00 pm. Please note that the date of this year's event is a few weeks earlier than in previous years. Watch for

future announcements requesting address information in early February.

Fruit Orders

The deadline to order California Navel oranges, Florida grapefruit, Florida Temples and tangerines is Monday, February 14, and pick-up will be Sunday, February 27. Please call your order into 301-937-7478 for fresh, delicious fruit.

Happy February Birthday!!
