PTO News
THANK YOU- to our Teacher Appreciation chairs, Angie Stern, Corrina Foy, and their amazing bakers (Suzette Weiss, Anne Leidenfrost,  Jamie Steinbach, Natalie DiNicola, Bettina Drake, and Nicole Taylor) for providing meals for our teachers and staff during parent conferences this week!
PTO PURCHASE- The PTO has approved spending $15,000 which will purchase 40 new iPads. This is helping us reach our goal of being 1 to 1 with technology.
TRUNK-or-TREAT- Halloween is on a Monday, so get your trick or treating started early. Please join us for our first Trunk-or-Treat. The event is free and open to all OB families. We hope to see you this Saturday from 3-4:30 p.m. Please contact oldbonhommedads@yahoo.com with any questions.

OB Eagles Slam a Book on Drugs!
Everyone is encouraged to dress up like their favorite book character.
Students will be meeting with their families today and having fall parties.

Candy Donation
After Halloween, do you still have Halloween candy around your house?
Are you thinking that you have had enough, but don't want it to go to waste?

Are you aware that there are children that don't get to go trick-or-treating and would love a few treats?
We have a solution!

Bring any unopened candy to the office by Friday, November 4. All candy will be boxed up and taken to the local Ronald McDonald House for other children and families in our community to enjoy. Please do not buy any candy for this activity. Save that money to buy real food for our Thanksgiving drive! Start our community giving today!
Counselor News
Throughout the school year, we inadvertently throw a lot of different acronyms your way. To help you feel like you are not on a Seinfeld show we have created the Parent Guide to Student Appraisal. In this guide, you will find assessment names, acronyms, descriptions and the reason why students are given these assessments.
