Welcome to Quarter 2 here at Bernheim Middle School, Bruin Nation! It's been a fantastic start, with students diving into creative and challenging projects. From designing Tiny Houses to creating their own websites, drafting scripts for documentaries, and crafting stories that blend history and literature, our Bruins have been hard at work! Looking ahead, we’re excited to host our second annual Title 1 Community Contributor Carnival on October 24th from 6:00 pm to 7:30 pm, and we’d love to see you there. Be sure to check out the event flyer created by two of our talented students, Rylie and Maycie!
