April 12-16: News, Updates and Celebrations

Dear Bernheim Community,

We hope everyone had a safe, healthy and fun spring break we are back to business tomorrow! Students make sure you have chromebooks charged and ready to go! Don't forget masks, water bottles, and school supplies! 

Morning Car Rider procedures have changed again.  

The CDC guidelines have changed again, which brings us good news, no more temperature checks in the morning.   Procedures for morning car rider drop off will remain the same excluding the temperature check. So that means two lines of cars and Ms. Bush will still direct traffic.  The first two cars in each line will be given the directive for students to exit their car. Once students are safely to the sidewalk Ms. Bush will signal the line to move. This will be much like the afternoon car rider procedure.  Please follow Ms. Bush's instructions so we can keep all kids safe.  Students still must wear masks upon exiting the vehicle and be ready to jump out of their cars.  

Supporting Students

BMS has multiple paths to helping students be successful both in the classroom and outside the classroom.  Academic Success (ESS) Recovery Opportunities, Title 1 Resource teachers in Math and Reading, not to mention each and every teacher providing opportunity to be successful and show mastery of standards.  If your student is struggling academically please contact their teacher for assistance in developing an intervention plan or adjusting one that is currently in place.  

BMS provides social emotional support for students in many ways including mentoring, advisory, mental health therapist, a school counselor, character education, college and career guidance and of course the school therapy dog.  We believe in the whole child and supporting them, every student, every day! As always please email amy.bush@bullitt.kyschools.us with any questions or counseling needs
