Dear Bernheim Community,
We hope everyone had a wonderful week, Bruin Nation sure did! This week was busy! Students are working on so many different great learning activities all the while spreading kindness and cheer. This week was SRO appreciation week, and we want Officer Todd Harper to know we are glad he is there to help keep BMS safe. Thank you for all you do for BMS.
Not only was it SRO appreciation week it was KINDNESS week. All week long students were encouraged to show kindness by going over and above the usual. Students completed a compliment chain, spread kindness by recognizing each other for Random Acts of Kindness and several received special certificates for going over and above daily!
This year the Governor's Cup Academic Team has done a fantastic job! We have two students headed to STATE! We are very proud of Jacob and Jackson! Can’t wait to see them bring home the win at state!!
