MS Minutes: 04.16.24

Posted on April 17, 2024

Hello, Middle School Students and Families! Below is this week’s MS Meeting recap.

Jasper Ingenthron ’29 and Rafay Desautels ’29 ran today’s meeting. You can check out the slides from this week’s meeting here.


THE BVR STUDENT

Mason Baker ’29 presented: Takes Only What They Need.

This element is important because if you take more than you need, it can cause trouble for others around you. For example, if I am doing a project in art class, I take only the materials that I need so that if someone else needs something that I am not using, they have access to it. Just like with food, if I take more than what I need, then someone else might not get enough, and it’s a waste of food.


ANNOUNCEMENTS

April is Poetry Month! Ms. Macomber read Spring by Mary Oliver.


Rishaan Chowdhury ’29 and Alessandro Traverso ’30 talk about Beaver Bux. Starting today, students can earn Bux in language and music classes.


Rishaan Chowdhury ’29 announced this month’s Guess The Candy in the Jar contest: Skittles.


We ate lunch outside today!
