Parents were excited to see actual practice tests, so they could see what is expected of their third grader! It was a great night with our BES families!



An honest Hoosier came to speak to our kids today about his life and legacy.
4th grade was visited by none other than “Abraham Lincoln” who gave us a glimpse back into history through storytelling.
A huge thanks to CPEF for providing the grant that helped fund this convocation.





Clark-Pleasant Schools Plan for Solar Eclipse
Dear Clark-Pleasant Families,
We would like to make you aware that a total solar eclipse will take place April 8, 2024. This eclipse will reach across 16 states but will be most prominent in Central Indiana, especially in Johnson County. Therefore like many nearby school districts, we are making plans for a "live," synchronous E-Learning Day on 04/08/2024. We are making this decision out of an abundance of caution as the eclipse will take place in Indiana for over several hours. Additionally, we are being told by local emergency management officials that there will be a significant influx of visitors coming to Johnson County during this time period creating major concerns with transportation and congestion. If you have any further questions, please feel free to reach out to your respective school building administrators.
Sincerely,
Dr. Timothy Edsell
Superintendent
Clark-Pleasant Community School Corporation



4th grade and 1st grade partnered up for a fun READO REWARD! The students that did their January READO Board got to have a "snowball" fight and eat some "snowballs" (powdered sugar donuts). Congrats to all the kids that did their January Reado Boards!





This week is National School Counseling Week. We are so thankful for Mrs. DeLion and all the amazing work she does with students and staff. She is always there for others in times of need, and is proactive in working with students. She has done an amazing job facilitating our Warrior Way Store and Experiences for students. She is a compassionate and empathetic educator and we are very appreciative of everything she does for the Break-O-Day community!

Six more weeks of winter of an early Spring? Kindergarten students went outside this morning to see if the groundhog saw his shadow. Mr.Crow, husband of Kindergarten teacher Mrs. Crow brought Joe the ground to BES to see if Joe would see his shadow. Sadly, Joe saw his shadow and it will be six more weeks of winter at BES.
