Dear Bernheim Community,
Thank you for a fantastic week! We loved seeing everyone Wednesday for our Title 1 Parent Literacy Night: Be A Bruin Night. Students did a wonderful job presenting to their parents and we loved getting to visit with everyone and see our BMS families!
BMS HAVING A GLOBAL IMPACT
So far BMS students have raised $1733 for the Ugandan Water Project. Students are so excited to see that they are having a global impact. If everyone contributed just $10 we would easily surpass our goal.
We only need $1867 more to reach our goal and there are only 7 more days to go.
Students are learning how life is so different in other places and want to do all they can to make the world a better place! A Long Walk to Water written by Salva Dut has helped students make connections to the struggles of people in other countries. The understanding of what a great country we live in really comes to life in contrast. Please help our students make a difference in the world by contributing to the Bernheim Uganda Water Project!
ONLY 7 More Days To GO!
