April 22-26, 2024. BMS Newsbytes: News, Updates and Celebrations

Dear Bernheim Community,

Thank you for supporting your children in their learning and joining us for The Student Showcase of Learning.  We have approximately 150 people in attendance.  Students did a wonderful job speaking to how they have grown through the Graduate Profile Competencies this school year.  


Students are  gearing up for the “Big Kahuna” Kentucky Summative Assessment (KSA).  All students will be taking the KSA this school year.  The test begins April 29th.  Please make sure students have their chromebooks, chargers and a great night sleep. Another thing we are asking is that students are here every day of testing.  Students will perform their best if they are in the regular testing environment as opposed to an extra make up session.   Excellent Work Ethic is something BMS promotes every day of the year.  Please make sure students are ready to do their absolute best each day of testing.  


 Yearbooks!

Great News! Yearbooks are here, they will be delivered to students during the last week of school. There are a handful of extra yearbooks that can be purchased for $30. Please see Ms. Dabrowski.


 TRANSPORTATION CHANGES?? 

 If you need to make a change to transportation during the day, call the school prior to 2:30 pm and then send in a transportation change note to Ms Jennifer Vittitoe jennifer.vittitoe@bullitt.kyschools.us You must call in to speak with someone and a written note will be required.
