Message from Dr. Kaminski
I want to personally thank all of you who have supported any one, or all, of the amazing service projects that our students have initiated and completed this past month at BSE. I am thrilled to be surrounded by little people who find the desire to be helpful, and who care for their fellow man, both here in Fishers and throughout the world. Today our students celebrated Super Hero Day in support of Miss Day's Class service project. What an amazing response from our BSE students!
Our students' support for the people of Haiti, those who need food and clothes, as well as various others, is simply amazing. Thanks again for helping your children grow into caring and committed community helpers.
I wish you a restful and most enjoyable Fall Break! See you back at school on Monday, October 24th.
Dr. Kaminski

T-Shirts for a Cause
SCI teacher Mark Walters has designed the t-shirt to commemorate Indiana's 200th birthday. You can view Mark's video here. ALL PROFITS WILL BE DONATED TO TWO WORTHY CAUSES: The first is YMI -Youth Mentoring Initiative (www.ymionline.org) here in Fishers. As you may already know, they help provide mentors for students in our HSE schools. The second group is called Water Is Life (www.lifeiswater.com). They are an organization working on a new initiative called The Drinkable Book Project, which will help bring clean water to places where it doesn't exist.
