BMS Newsbytes: April 18-April 22: Updates, News and Celebrations

 Dear Bernheim Community,

We have had a good week here in Bruin Nation.  Students have stepped right back into the swing of things and are working on getting ready for the state assessments at the end of the year as well as the end of the year projects and field trips.   Field trip forms are going home Monday with students please sign those and turn them in with appropriate field trip funds by Friday.


Speaking of the end of the year, the weather is warming up and students always get antsy this time of year.  We appreciate your support in reminding students to be respectful, responsible and kind.  We follow the Bruin Way at BMS.  Be Respectful, Be Responsible, Be Safe, Be Here & Be Bold in Kindness, Courage and Excellent Work Ethic. 


ORDER YOUR YEARBOOK NOW!

Yearbooks are available to be ordered at $20.00 each.  Please order early! Ms. Newton is our yearbook sponsor and will be able to answer any questions you have regarding them.  They will be given out towards the end of the school year.
