The Night Before School The halls are quiet, the rooms are still. Waiting for laughter, joy and thrill. Backpacks are ready, dreams tucked tight-tomorrow begins with morning first light! See you tomorrow Andersen Eagles!! It's going to be a great year!

There are still available VPK seats in several BPS schools. YouTube link: https://youtu.be/vhRHLxLVKd8 . BPS's mission is for every four year old to attend a VPK. For more information go to www.brevardschools.org- Parents and Students- Voluntary Prekindergarten.

A huge shout out to Faith Baptist Church in Rockledge for their incredible generosity and heart for the community Today's back-to-school bash was a shining example of what it means to give back. With backpacks full of supplies, fun activities, and love poured out in every detail, faith Baptist Church proved once again that they are a giving church and a great community. We are fortunate to have their support as we get our students ready for a strong and successful school year. Thank you for being a blessing to our school!
