Dear Bernheim Community,
Thank you for making our first NTI day back from Christmas break such a success! While it wasn’t quite the start we envisioned—thanks to Mother Nature—our amazing students rose to the occasion and absolutely rocked it. From strong participation in Google Meets to completing assignments in Google Classroom, you’ve shown just how resilient and dedicated Bruin Nation truly is.
We are so proud of your efforts and can’t wait to see you back in person next week! Let’s keep this momentum going and make 2025 an incredible year. Go Bruins!
