Our Spring Book Fair will run February 9th-16th. Parents are welcome to check in at the office with ID to shop from 7:30am-3:00pm daily. Please let the office know if you would like your child to join you in the library to shop.

Can you believe It is already February?!?! Spring semester always has a way of flying by, so be sure you are helping your child by talking to them about their school work, and making sure they are getting plenty of rest. There are lots of fun activities coming up, but we want to make sure their education comes first.

Please have your child check the lost and found. We have a lot of unclaimed jackets and coats that will be donated on February 16. We would love for everyone to be reunited with their warm clothing before then! 😊

As always, if you have any questions or concerns, please do not hesitate to reach out.

Bertram's ADA for this past week was 90.18%.

ADA stands for Average Daily Attendance and is defined as the total days of student attendance divided by the total days of instruction. "98 IS Great!", so 98% is our goal! We recognize that illnesses and events take place that necesitate absences, however, we do encourage every student to be in school every day he/she is able. Let's work toward 98%!

Have you experienced great customer service from an RJ teacher, staff, or employee? Has one of our staff members done something to make you smile or gone the extra mile? If so, we want to hear about it!

What is a Staff Shout Out? A Shout Out is a special recognition that acknowledges a District staff member who has demonstrated a special effort, an outstanding job, caring customer service, a project of high quality workmanship, a team mentality, and/or is helping students CRAFT the FUTURE.
