Congratulations to Ms. Kaley!

Kaley Lewis, a former graduate of Bessemer, spent her 2nd semester shadowing and teaching lessons in Mrs. Greenough's 1st grade classroom. This was part of her course work in the Teacher Education Program at Gogebic Community College, and this past weekend she graduated! She plans to attend Northern Michigan University in the Fall to obtain her Bachelor's degree in Education. The students really enjoyed working with and learning from Ms. Kaley. She is already so missed in the classroom, but we all wish her the best of luck in her educational endeavors!

The third grade class became stewards of the Iron Bell Trail today, thank you to the help of Enni Gregas. She taught the third graders about the history of the trail and the importance of it to our community. After, the group went up to clean the trail.
