Just because the school year has ended, doesn't mean that the fun stops! The Ben-Hem PTO provides several opportunities for students and families to build upon their education and community throughout the summer months. Get involved in... Secret Summer Pen Pals Encourage your student to read and write more by signing them up for our Pen-Pal program. After completing the form, your student will be paired with another Ben-Hem student. Each participant is committed to writing at least 5 letters over the next 8 or so weeks. They should not reveal their identity until the final letter. Postcards, fancy stationary, cut outs or pictures can be included (just don't reveal your identity until the final letter). Students who sign up will receive a kit, via email, containing instructions, topic ideas and a printable "reveal" letter form. In 2015, more than 60 students participated! Seed to Harvest Summer Activities Each summer, several fun community building activities are held behind the school in the Seed to Harvest Garden. All events are FREE, however sign-up is requested.
