❓🔎 BIS parents and students: our lost and found boxes are FULL! If your child is missing any items, please encourage him or her to check the boxes located at the entry of each wing. Students will have the opportunity to retrieve any items that they have misplaced DURING their PE class on Monday, November 18th. Parents, we encourage everyone to put names or initials on outerwear tags to make it easier to track down the owner. 🚨 Please note: all items in the lost and found boxes not picked up by Monday, November 18th will be donated to our Coats for Kids Drive or other local charity. Note: If valuable items such as phones, rings, etc. are found, they are kept in the front office until claimed.
