Dear McKelvie Families ~
I am fearful to tell you the new last day of school. Providing this information does not seem to
stop snow days from coming. :) So - it’s likely June 22nd is the new day, but no guarantees!
Below are this week’s notes:

From the Library
On Monday and Tuesday of this past week, there were two "Golden Tickets" found! These were
the first tickets found since the end of October. On Monday, while searching for a book,
Lyla Stein found a "Golden Ticket". On Tuesday, the 7th out of 10 tickets was located. Congrats
to Megan Carroll! Both young ladies received gift certificates to Barnes and Noble. Happy book
shopping! There are still 3 "Golden Tickets" to be found. These are hidden in various fiction and
nonfiction books at the McKelvie Library.

As you know the McKelvie community lost our admired reading specialist, Lee Webb in
November. Lee was a true advocate for children as they learned and navigated the social and
emotional world of the preteen years. In honor of Lee, the generous Bedford Parent Teacher
Group (PTG), donated two copies of Bully by Patricia Polacco. These books each have a book
plate in memory of Lee. The books are treasures that will be enjoyed by many in the years to
come.

Vaping - IMPORTANT INFORMATION
There has been a lot of talk about vaping in recent weeks. This issue is certainly not lost on
families in Bedford. As a result, I want you to be aware of what some of these devices look like.
Click HERE to see some images. They do not always look like what we think. THIS ONE is
especially nondescript. And, no, we have not found any of these devices on students at McKelvie. This is simply an FYI as they are growing in popularity.

Box Tops
The next two weeks are prime in collecting box tops. Please send yours in, if you have some
around the house. We will be submitting soon. Questions can be directed to Stephanie Richard
