Dear Bernheim Community,
This week has certainly been an unusual one! We appreciate everyone’s efforts in getting students up and ready for NTI. It was great to see so many students actively participating online!
Please remember that students must engage in NTI for the day to count—otherwise, they may have to make it up during the summer.
Meanwhile, we’re still dealing with a wave of illnesses at BMS. Please encourage students to wash their hands, cover their mouths when coughing or sneezing, and take all necessary precautions to stay healthy. Our attendance over the past two weeks has been very low, and we want to see everyone back in good health soon!

COUNSELOR’S CORNER
A huge thank you to all our students for participating in Kindness Week spirit days and, most importantly, for spreading kindness to others! Your thoughtful actions and positive energy made a difference in our school and community. Let’s keep the kindness going—because as Huston Kraft says, "Kindness is not about convenience. It’s a commitment to looking, speaking, and acting with love, especially when it’s hard." Keep shining your kindness every day!
