BES Announcement: Spirit Night tonight at Brozinni's Pizza in Niceville from 3pm to 9pm. Dine in, take out, and delivery orders count!

BES Families- Our biggest fundraiser of the year isn't over! Students have danced, laughed and had a blast for 10 days! And we've raised $27,000.00 for our amazing school! A huge THANK YOU to the families who have helped us reach this phenomenal number! We have until Thursday evening to make this happen- our community has raised $8,000.00 in one day before- we have 2.5 days to make this happen! Let's go BES Seminoles! Every year, we count dollars that come in for one week post the Dance-a-thon and before calculating final results. We still have time to reach our big goal of $35,000.00! We also need 3 more states to complete the 50 state challenge: South Dakota, Rhode Island and Washington DC! Who knows someone in those wonderful states? Currently, our highest contributing grades are second grade, kindergarten and third grade. Our highest classes are Mrs. Palmer, Ms. Detweiler and Mrs. Strickland! It is a VERY close race for top three and could change with just one donation. The PTO can accept donations on mybooster.com or by cash/check anytime of the year. Last year we conquered our goal, let's do it again! Thank you for your continued support! --Bluewater Elementary PTO

Invest in Bluewater's Best: Help Us Reach Our Fundraising Goal! Dear Parents of Bluewater Elementary Students, We're reaching out today with exciting news about our "Invest for the Best" fundraising campaign! As you know, Bluewater Elementary strives to provide our students with the best possible learning environment – one that fosters their academic growth, creativity, and overall well-being. Through your generous support, we're aiming to raise $8,000 to fund essential campus improvements and technology upgrades. We're thrilled to announce that with just one week remaining, we're almost halfway to our goal!

We understand the power of community partnerships, and contributions from local businesses are greatly appreciated. __________________________________________ The deadline to donate is Wednesday, September 18th. Here are a couple convenient ways to contribute: Send cash or check with your student. Please make checks payable to "Bluewater Elementary PTO." OR Donate online at schoolcashonline.com.
