Bitney Prep Kids Doing Bitney Prep Things: Ms. Harper's Environmental Science class put the scientific method to the test this week — literally.
Students researched the science behind how paper airplanes fly, wrote hypotheses, built their own designs, and put them to the test to see whose predictions held up. Real research, real experimentation, real results.
This is what learning by doing looks like at Bitney Prep.

Calling all local businesses: Bitney Prep is looking for mentors.
Every Wednesday, all day, our students step out of the classroom and into your world, learning hands-on, real-world skills that no textbook can teach. As a mentor, you'd work directly with a student, showing them what your industry actually looks like day to day, and partner closely with Bitney Prep staff to make sure the experience is meaningful for everyone involved.
If you've ever wanted to invest in the next generation of your community, this is it. Help shape a student's future while bringing fresh energy into your business.
Interested in mentoring a Bitney Prep intern? Send us a message at [email protected] -- we'd love to talk.

That's a wrap on Week of Welcome. We closed things out the sweetest way possible — frozen treats and good company at lunch on Friday.
From Bingo to art to trivia to outdoor games to this, it's been a week all about the same thing: coming together, having fun, and remembering that Bitney is a community first. Thanks for jumping in and making it a great first week back. Here's to the rest of the year.

Day Two of W.O.W. brought out the creativity! Lunch turned into an arts and crafts studio as students took a break to make something with their hands and hang out with friends — no pressure, just good vibes and glitter glue.
Up next: Wednesday is TRIVIA DAY, and the winning team walks away with prizes. Start recruiting your smartest friends now.
See you at lunch!

No slow start here — Ms. Harper's math classes jumped right into the good stuff this week.
In Algebra, students dove into pattern recognition and conjectures, building the teamwork and class expectations that'll carry them through the year.
Meanwhile, Geometry got hands-on with Möbius strips — predicting, testing, analyzing... and yes, a few ended up as hats.
This is what we mean when we say Bitney students learn by doing.

Lunch got loud today as students packed Room 8 for the first Week of Welcome activity. Every W.O.W. game is a chance to earn Bitney Bucks -- and today's players were chasing one of the most coveted prizes around: the Universal Homework Pass.
Tomorrow, we're keeping the creativity going with arts and crafts supplies out for anyone who wants to stop by. Come hang out, make something, and rack up those Bitney Bucks. See you at lunch!

Welcome back, Bitney Prep! Classes resume Monday, August 17th, and we're kicking things off with a full WEEK OF WELCOME because before we're a school, we're a community, and community starts with showing up for each other.
All week, head to Room 8 at lunch for something new every day:
🎱 Monday — Bingo (prizes!)
🎨 Tuesday — Art
❓ Wednesday — Trivia (prizes!)
🌈 Thursday — Outdoor Games
🍦 Friday — Frozen Treats
No pressure, no agenda, just a chance to reconnect with friends, meet someone new, have some fun, and remember why Bitney feels less like a factory and more like a place you belong. See you at lunch!
