Sept 16-Sept 20 - News, Updates and Student Celebrations!

Dear Bernheim Community, 

It has been a fantastic week in Bruin Nation! This year we are working on more frequent student celebrations.  Your students work hard every day, they strive to live the Bruin Way and we know acknowledgement for a job well done goes a long way.  With limited resources we are looking for ways to support programs at BMS.  Box Tops for Education is an easy method to support schools. They have a cool new app, that allows you to scan receipts and the box top funds go straight to your school account- supper easy and costs families nothing other than a second or two to scan items receipts. 

We are looking for business partners in our school community to support the growth of all students.  Bernheim Middle School is committed to growing and graduating students who are college and career ready.  The business of education is to strengthen the community of the future, today's students are tomorrow's workforce.  Please contact Ms. Sarah Carnes if you are interested in supporting or partnering with BMS to continue to produce students ready for success! sarah.carnes@bullitt.kyschools.us
