Nominate a deserving teacher today!

9/19/2018

Dear BRCVPA Students and Parents,

Please help us by nominating a teacher to represent BRCVPA for the 2018-2019 school year. We have so many outstanding educators at BRCVPA, so this is always a difficult decision. The candidate should have the ability to inspire students of all backgrounds and abilities, and to help them reach their fullest potential. The BRCVPA teacher of the year should have the respect and admiration of the students, parents, and colleagues. They should play an active and useful role in the community and work diligently to enhance the the arts-based program we believe in here at BRCVPA.

Thank you for taking the time to nominate a deserving teacher today! We look forward to recognizing and honoring one (or more) of these outstanding educators.

Landform Sculptures in Ms. Adkinson's Class

9/17/2018

In Ms. Adkinson's 4th Grade Science class, students applied their understanding of how weathering and erosion contribute to the creation of landforms. Students designed and sketched their ideas, then brought their sketches to life with play doh and other materials. Their classmates were tasked with figuring out which types of weathering and erosion created their landform. Great lesson, Ms. A!

Awesome work, 4th Graders!

Tiaras and Toast

Our very own Paris M. was crowned National American Miss Louisiana Pre-Teen Queen for 2018-19. She will travel to Hollywood in November to compete for the national title. As part of her community service platform, she has established Paris' Amoire. Paris' Amoire is dedicated to building confidence in young girls. When a girl looks good on the outside, she will feel good on the inside!

Science with Ms. Berry!

9/10/2018

After learning about the steps of the scientific method we used our knowledge to perform our own experiment! Using the steps of the scientific method we observed gummy bears and asked a question, what will happy to the gummy bears when left in water overnight. We then wrote our hypothesis and predicted what would happen. After, we planned and performed our experiment. In our conclusion we stated if our hypothesis was correct or incorrect and described what happened. The gummy bears got bigger when left in water overnight.
