The festival featured familiar favorites like pumpkin painting, inflatable games, Trunk or Treat, and the Time Warp dance, as well as new additions including the Chili Cook-Off, sensory tables, potato sack races, and hot cider.

Team spirit was absolutely bursting at our third annual Field Day on June 3, with students sporting their multi-grade team t-shirts. Students in PreK–grade 7 enjoyed a fun-filled day of team-building activities, including javelin throw, fastest to complete the course, dress relay, tug-of-war, sponge throw, and many more.
Inspired by the blissful feeling of uncovering connections, our blog Eureka! McLean is about sharing moments that capture the essence of what it is to be a BASIS Independent student, teacher, administrator, or family.
