Daily Announcements are shared with students each morning.  Parent announcements are communicated weekly via the Principal's Weekly Newsletter (Blanchard School News).  Daily after school clubs are posted on the Blanchard website Events Calendar.

In recognition of kindness month, Student Council members have hidden kindness rocks in various places throughout the school. If you  find one of these rocks you can keep it for yourself, give it to someone else who you think might want or need a little kindness, or hide it again for another person to find. In this way, we hope to literally spread kindness throughout the school to celebrate the fact that Blanchard rocks!

Today we are celebrating dyslexia.  Many people with dyslexia possess unique skills. These skills vary from person to person, but commonly include having the ability to alter and create perceptions, see the bigger picture, coming up with big ideas and being great with creativity, story-telling and problem solving.

Famous people with Dyslexia:  Victoria Beckham, Albert Einstein, Jennifer Aniston, Walt Disney, Kiera Knightley, Bill Gates, Bill Gates, Orlando Bloom, Jamie Oliver
