🎻 Musical Magic at Fairbrook! 🎻
On October 9th, the Dayton Philharmonic Orchestra's String Quartet visited our Kindergarten and 1st-grade students at Fairbrook Elementary! 🎶
Kindergarten enjoyed a musical rendition of The Three Billy Goats Gruff, while 1st-grade experienced The Great Dinosaur Adventure. Through beautiful music, students learned about high and low sounds, the string family of instruments, and how music can tell a story.
Thank you to the DPO String Quartet for this memorable and educational experience! 🎵
🚒 Earlier this month, Mrs. Hart & Mrs. Ammon’s preschool class went on a scavenger hunt! 🚒
In honor of Fire Prevention Week last week, the students have been learning about community helpers, focusing on firefighters. They explored how firefighters keep us safe and learned about important safety items in our school and community, such as fire alarms, fire hydrants, and fire extinguishers.
After their lesson, the class went on a scavenger hunt to find pictures of everything they had learned. It was a fun and adventurous way to reinforce the importance of fire safety! 🔍👩🚒

Shoutout to Freshman Grayson Osterman!
BHS’s Business CTE Pathway proudly installed a new chapter of Business Professionals of America (BPA) this school year. In September, the chapter president, Grayson Osterman, represented the school at the regional BPA Leadership Meeting.
Grayson participated in team-building activities with BPA officers from schools such as Centerville, Stebbins, and West Carrollton, making valuable connections with fellow business students. It was a fantastic opportunity for the new chapter to build its presence and for students to engage with peers from other districts. 💼🤝 #BPA #BusinessProfessionals #FutureLeaders #BHSCTE #BcreekSchools

🌿🐚 Preschool Fun with Hermit Crabs in Mrs. Zimmerman & Mrs. Laughman’s Classes! 🦀✨
This year, our preschoolers are exploring the world of hermit crabs! Nine crabs joined their classroom, where students observe, care for, and even build playgrounds for them using blocks. They also give the crabs baths and predict which foods they'll eat each day, recording their findings on a T-chart.
From learning about their habitat to watching videos of crabs changing shells, these hands-on experiences are sparking curiosity and discovery! 🦀💡
