Lessons from the Arctic
Tonight, Bayside students Aubrey (12th grade) and Elsa (11th grade) Engeriser will host a presentation as a product of their involvement with the Northwest Passage Project . They will be sharing information they learned about the animals of the Arctic as well as the science and technology used in the research being conducted by the University of Rhode Island's Graduate School of Oceanography .

Families and students of all ages are invited to attend and participate in a live telepresence connection with a scientist from URI's Graduate School of Oceanography via the Inner Space Center .

Join them at 6:30 p.m. in the Pilot Center Theatre. We look forward to seeing you there!
See You at the Pole
Students are invited to take part in the annual See You at the Pole™ event tomorrow (Wednesday, September 26) at 7:15 a.m.

According to its website, " See You at the Pole™ , the global day of student prayer, began in 1990 as a grass roots movement with ten students praying at their school. Twenty years later, millions pray on their campuses on the fourth Wednesday in September. 

"See You at the Pole™ is simply a prayer rally where students meet at the school flagpole before school to lift up their friends, families, teachers, school, and nation to God. See You at the Pole™ is a student-initiated, student-organized, and student-led event."

The following students have been chosen:
12th grade: Sam Britain, Jimbo Cassity*, Mac Douglas, Mary Helene Hall, Peterson Jones*, Rebecca Klimjack, Madelyn Mixon*, and Jessie Peterson*
