A Message from the Principal
Bay Harbor has been filled with Olympic excitement since having Snowboarder Nick Baumgartner here. The Olympic Opening Ceremony assembly last Friday was an outstanding way to kick off the Olympics! The students were wonderful listeners and excellent representatives of their countries! With the abnormal amount of indoor recesses and cold weather, it is important to keep the excitement going in the school. These are the types of things that students remember about school!
OLYMPIC WATCH:
Nick Baumgartner will be doing the Snowboardcross on Monday, February 17th at 1:00am our time. So, by the time we wake up Monday morning we will know how he did.
When you come to school for conferences, be sure to check out our Olympic “hands” Rings in the front entryway. You will also be able to see one of Nick’s snowboards!
Thank you for your continued support!
Tony Ebeling, Principal
