The BUGC secretaries. Hardest working women in education!!!!

Veterans Day Program at BUGC. Monday, Nov.11th 9:30-10:30.
Mr. Outsen (8th Grade Social Studies) sent this cool photo of his 5th hour students with their Constitution Books that were gifted to them from Robin Kelly. Nothing cooler than students appreciating their rights!
ANYONE who has ever attended BUGC is welcome to our first ever HOMECOMING basketball game on Thursday, Nov. 7th!! Come out and support the Tigers and reconnect with your BUGC Family!
Last night BUGC hosted its annual Fine Arts Fright Night and it was a big hit!!
Mrs. Eastman’s class participated in “How To” Projects where students taught the class how to do something they are good at. These projects come at the beginning of our Knowledge Unit where we explore how people gain knowledge and understand the world around them. Students shared skills such as playing the cello, making chocolate milk, riding a segue, finger knitting, and many more! What a fun couple of days

VETERANS DAY PROGRAM:
Bourbonnais Upper Grade Center is excited for our students to have the opportunity to thank our Veterans!! We are asking any student who has a family member that is a veteran or a current service member to invite that person to a Veterans Breakfast. On Monday, November 11th, beginning promptly at 9:30am ending at 10:30am, in the BUGC cafeteria we will host a breakfast honoring veterans. Students whose family members are present will be allowed to leave class and participate in the breakfast. Please RSVP by clicking on the link and completing the form before Wednesday, November 6th. This will allow us to know how many attendees we will have.
May God Bless All Who Have Served Our Country!!!!

This year Fab Lab added its first multi-filament/multi-color 3D printer. Jaeden is the first student to design and print a multi-color part at BUGC. His Patrick Star from Spongebob uses 5 different filaments, took over 12 hours to design (many of those hours were spent at home), and 15 hours to print.
Officer Dave Stukenborg, shares what it’s like to live in a wheelchair with BUGC students. Thank you, Mrs. Daub, for inviting him in to speak with our students.
This young lady has increased the number of books she has read from last year to now by more than 200%!! We are so proud of you, Emily!! #BUGCcreatinglifelongreaders
Every year our PE teachers put together the best obstacle course for our students. This year did not disappoint!! Mr. Arlis, Ms. Gamble and Mr. Dersien thank you keeping our students fit and engaged!!
Our 8th Grade Baseball Team was honored at The Village of Bourbonnais Board meeting tonight. The Tigers finished 3rd in the state this year!! So proud of our coaches and players!!!
Our Cross Country Team is running at the state competition right now. On Monday, there was no school. These guys showed up to have their own student led cross country practice!! You gotta love it!!
Please support the girls basketball fundraiser at Chicago Dough!!!
This is what I call getting your team of teachers on “the same page”! Mrs. Tupy and Mrs. Carlton of 7th Grade team black were twinning on Thursday.
Mrs. Buck and Mrs. Carlton challenges their students to match graphs, tables, equations and ordered pairs. Students were also creating graphs and tables by measuring how long it takes for water to fill a cylinder.
