When students hear the phrase “school is starting,” some smile while others wish they could hold on to summer just a little longer. But before school gets back in session and homework begins to pile up, Bear Creek high schoolers look forward to the annual bonding trip, Icebreaker.
Welcome back to another year at The Bear Creek School! The music program has a few exciting new things going on in 2018-2019, and I wanted to share some things with you here.
Last spring I sat down to interview one of the sophomore girls of Bear Creek, Miss Annemarie Mullet. Besides being an avid reader and talented tennis player, Annemarie embraces her Scottish roots through dancing and enjoys painting with watercolors and writing short stories in her free time.
Last spring I sat down with Mrs. Dunn, our much-loved Upper School biology teacher. We discussed her passions, inside and outside the classroom, including her favorite movies, college degrees, traveling, and of course, teaching. I got to know her better and hope to share a glimpse of what an amazing teacher she is.
Kindergarten is a precious and important time! This might be the first time your child has been away from you for the whole day on a consistent basis.
Getting back to work is slow treading second semester. I like to call it a “slow jog” because there are so many breaks and moments where your mind distances itself from school (i.e. ski trips and weekends spent sleeping in till noon) which makes it difficult to snap back into the grind the next week.
