Coming up this week at Ben Reifel!

Team 8-3 students were busy learning the difference between Loyalists and Patriots. As they visited various stations, they uncovered information about life in the colonies before the Revolutionary War. Would they find the spy in the group? Whose side would they take?
We are so proud of the amazing performance our students had at the Festival of Bands this past weekend. Thank you to all the staff and students for all of their hard work. We are so proud of you!
Students in accelerated social studies on team 7-3 completed a map distortion lab recently. What a creative way for the students to engage in learning!

Coming up this week at Ben Reifel
Students from Mrs. Green's speech class visited Inspiration Elementary and spent time reading to students. Not only does this give our Bison students the opportunity to practice their reading, but gives young learners the chance to be read to! We are thrilled we can partner with our neighbors to support all of our learners in the community.
Please consider donating to this amazing cause!

Thank you to the Washington Homecoming court for visiting today! They shared experiences with sixth graders who also got to ask questions.
Here is what is going on this week at Ben Reifel.
BRMS honored Orange Shirt Day to stand in solidarity with all children and families who were, and continue to be, impacted by forced cultural assimilation at Residential Indian Boarding Schools.
Our Očéti Šakówiŋ Owáuŋspe students created powerful posters to share facts and encourage community involvement on September 30th. In true Ben Reifel style, staff proudly showed up to support and uplift this important day of remembrance and awareness.
We also want to acknowledge a group of staff members not pictured also participated by wearing orange, showing their commitment to this day of reflection and support.
Thursday, students in the CLC program completed their 2-week HuntSAFE course. Thank you, Vince, and the HuntSAFE team for another year with BRMS!
Dress up week is coming to celebrate Washington Homecoming.
Just a reminder to all students that hats are not allowed.
Fall is under way and so is team 7-2's tradition of making cards for local community members! We love seeing all the ways they give back.
