Welcome!

Welcome Bemis Families to the start of the new school year!  Doesn't the landscaping look beautiful? (Thanks Carmen and site committee!)

Today the PTO provided a Welcome Back Breakfast for the Teachers and Staff to enjoy.
This is a picture of the welcome back signs as they walked in this morning.

This afternoon was Meet and Greet with the teachers .The PTO also provided a "Kindergarten/New Family" Welcome.  The purpose of the program was to provide new families with information about the PTO and to connect them with a Parent Ambassador.  The Parent Ambassador's role is to be a resource and support person during their first year at Bemis.  We had over 160 in attendance-great turnout! Thank You to our awesome Parent Ambassadors for providing info, tours, answering questions, and connecting and welcoming our new families. Thank You Carol, Barbara, Ramya, Vicki, Kendra,Janice,Heather,Rosa,Kristen,Marianna,Cara!
