Thank you "Beary" Much!

Hi folks, Jon Wennstrom here! This week we recognized our outstanding volunteers at Buchanan Elementary. We had a breakfast in their honor and had a chance to share with them our appreciation for all they do. So many things happen in our school because of the amazing volunteers we have. It truly is a pleasure to work with so many family members and community members who simply want to give back to our school and help our students and teacher be successful. For all those who came and all who couldn't attend, I want to say a huge "THANK YOU" on behalf of our Buchanan team!

#BuchananBears

Did you know that our 4th grade students did a service project at "Build A Bear"? What a great experience they had earning the money and going to build their stuffed animals! Some kids cleaned their rooms, babysat, helped in the yards, took care of pets, returned cans, and so many other things. As a 4^th grade, they built 126 stuffed animals. They will be going to Mott and Beaumont Children’s Hospitals, Foster Closet, Hospice, and Livonia Fire Department. Great things are happening at Buchanan!
