A wee bit calmer this week. Hope yours is as well.

Heads up


The plans for Diversability Aware on the Square are still in the works. This project became like a giant ball of yarn rolling down hill, as soon as I grabbed a thread, it wasn't attached to the ball and unraveled in my hand. The ball kept rolling down hill. I think I've got a hold of a thread that is attached to the ball firmly in my grasp now. But the lessons learned will carry forward into next spring. I think the First Friday in May should be Diversability Day, don't you?

Speaking of First Friday, we will have a presence each event this year. The Bright Futures booth will be getting a lot of on the square. This Friday, we'll be taking "youmattergrams" and posting them on Instagram along with polling residents on what they would like more information about in the coming months. The theme is sustainability. The Northwest Arkansas Emerging Leaders Sustainability Group is looking for volunteers to collect recyclables, reusables, and compost at First Friday events. Classes or groups wanting to volunteer should contact Stephanie Garman. stephanie.garman@walmart.com

We'll be chatting about how to market classrooms, schools, and the district tonight during #bpseduchat. Join in and share your ideas, all are welcome. Not sure how to chat?



We are seriously considering implementing Peachjar for digitally distributing flyers to our patrons. There is a minimal cost to patrons, but it is far less than 8,500 2-sided color copies. There is not cost to the district or PTOs. Additionally, it's more sustainable and better for the environment.

Board recognition evening is tonight at Old High Middle School at 6:00. It will be the final recognition night of the year.

Wednesday Walkabouts

Tomorrow morning I'm trying to get to Centerton Gamble to take photos of the progress at the Bentonville West construction site.
