Friday the halls were filled with school spirit. Bickel Blue was everywhere. The kids were in good spirits, too because Mrs. Higley made special plans for all of the students who got their best math score of the year.
Don't forget that Mondays we dismiss at 2:00 and the school board meeting will be held on Monday the 13th at 7 pm (160 Gooding Street West).

In August Miss McNeil asked her 3rd graders to color in a picture of a hat! They were to design the perfect hat for themselves. In November she had her friend, Nana Sam,
crochet her closest interpretation of each of the hats . To ring in the New Year, Miss McNeil's students received their special hats today and got to wear them home!


It is almost time to head back to school. We can't wait to see all of our Bobcats on Tuesday, January 7. You may have noticed on the last Friday before break that the staff backed their cars in. We said goodbye to 2024 and are ready to head into 2025!





Friday, January 10 is our PTO sponsored School Spirit Day! Show off that Bickel Blue (or any Bickel shirt). The class with the most spirit will be recognized!

The stockings were hung by the chimney with care,
In hopes that Ms. Angell would put something special in there;
The first graders were happy and filled with delight,
When they discovered their stocking had been filled in the night!


When we return next week from our relaxing break, we will be taking our monthly reading and math test in K-5. When we took the tests in December, Mrs. Ruiz's class worked so hard that they earned a shaving cream party!



From our families to your families, Happy New Year!

There’s still time to make a difference! Homelessness impacts a child’s ability to learn, but with your support, we can provide the stability they need. Just $25 can provide hygiene supplies for a family, $75 can fund equipment for extracurriculars, and $150 can feed a student for a month. Let’s help them focus on learning, not survival. Donate before Dec. 31 to help TFSD reach our goal of $5,000. Every dollar helps! https://www.avenuesforhope.org/organizations/twin-falls-school-district #AvenuesForHope #LastChanceToGive #SupportTFSD

"Reading by the fireplace with our popcorn and hot chocolate, and making snow globe crafts." Happy Holidays from Mrs. Jones and her 5th graders.


Today we celebrate a friend of Bickel! This lovely lady turns 100 years old today. She is friends with one of our staff members and lives in Florida. The staff and students worked together to create 100 (and 1 to grow on) birthday cards. Happy 100th Birthday, Mrs. Lehmer from your friends at Bickel!







Happy Holidays from Mrs. Shields and her 4th grade class!

Happy Holidays from Miss McNeil’s and Miss John’s 3rd graders. Miss John’s class traveled around the world to learn about different celebrations in different countries - enjoy their post cards!





Merry Christmas from Mrs. Hill and her second graders!



Merry Christmas from Ms. Angells and Mrs. Ruiz's first graders.


Merry Christmas from Mrs. Williams and the Kindergarteners!



Meet a TFSD student who’s balancing schoolwork with the challenge of homelessness. “I do my homework at a local McDonald’s or coffee shop where I can get free Wi-Fi,” they shared. No student should have to struggle with finding a safe, quiet place to learn. Help us support students facing homelessness by donating to the Avenues for Hope campaign. Your contribution can provide food, supplies, and stability so they can focus on their education. Donate today: https://www.avenuesforhope.org/organizations/twin-falls-school-district #AvenuesForHope #SupportTFSDStudents

Mrs. Higley's math students worked together to finish this holiday puzzle. These fifth graders put the final pieces together before break.
