You can sign up for one or as many slots as you're interested in. Questions? Contact Mr. Heth at david.heth@gpsjackets.org

Greetings Baldwin Heights School Family!
Unfortunately due to impending weather this Friday, we have had to MOVE OUR FIELD DAY TO MAY 28. We are incredibly sorry for this tremendous inconvenience. Many of our activities involve water and with the weather in the 40s in the morning and low 50s in the afternoon this would not provide our kids with a positive experience.
We would love for you to sign up and volunteer on Wednesday, May 28 for our new field day event as we will need more help than ever: https://bit.ly/bhfielddayvolunteerNEWDATE

5th Grade Parents!
We have some end of the year events to make sure are on your radar. The kids visit the middle school today with all the other 5th grades from across the district for an introduction to what they'll be in for next year. This is just for the students.
May 27 is our 5th Grade Graduation Ceremony in the BH Gym @ 2pm. Parents are welcome to attend and take their kids home after the ceremony.
May 30 is the last day of school and we'll have a Clap Out starting around 11:30am. Parents are welcome to come and line up in the front of the school as the kids do a lap around the building with all the other students celebrating their last day of Baldwin Heights!
We are going to miss this amazing group of kids!
Greetings Baldwin Heights School Family!
The district would very much like your input about the school climate at Baldwin Heights. This link is to a survey that will help to provide our school with an overall understanding of how our BH families perceive school climate along four dimensions: school connectedness, school safety, school orderliness, and peer and adult relations. There is also a short section about reading.
The survey is 24 questions where you simply rank how much you agree or disagree with statements about our school climate. This data will be very important as we have dialogue at the school and district level about how to improve the school climate at Baldwin Heights. The deadline is THIS FRIDAY. Thank you so much for your help!
