Bristow Run Panther Press

Dear Panther Families,

We are off to a great start at Bristow Run Elementary! Teachers and students have begun building relationships, establishing routines, and creating classroom communities that will set the stage for a successful year of learning together. As administrators, we look forward to working closely with our families to strengthen our school/family partnership. We hope to see many of our families at our annual fall block party on Friday, Sept. 20 at 5:30.

Back to School Nights are quickly approaching! Grades K-2 will be Tuesday, Sept 24 at 6:00 pm and grades 3-5 will be Thursday, Sept 26 at 6:00 pm. Following the teachers’ presentations, administration will have a short meeting with parents in the gym to review our school’s Continuous Improvement Plan. We will start at 7:00 and will conclude no later than 7:30. It’s important that parents attend BTSN to meet with their child’s teacher to learn more about ways to support your child at home. Parent partnerships help strengthen your child’s success in school!

Please take time to review the rest of our school newsletter for important updates and events coming soon. We certainly appreciate all our families and look forward to a wonderful year of learning, fun and success at BRES!

Partners in Education,

Mrs. Jeck and Mrs. MacWhorter

Back to School is a day to learn more about life inside Bristow Run Elementary! See the flyers below for more detailed information.

We are excited to announce the kickoff of our Bristow Run Fun Run fundraiser! Our goal is to raise $20,000 to enhance our school’s resources and provide our students with the best possible educational experience.

This year we are raising funds for three murals in our specialists' classrooms for art, music, and PE. Additionally, if we hit our $20,000 goal, we will have a school-wide dress up day!

We encourage all families to…

1️⃣ Sign up TODAY at MyBooster.com.

2️⃣ Share about our fundraiser with friends and family.

3️⃣ Donate if you are able.

Thank you for your support!

Come join us as we celebrate the changing of seasons!

This Friday, September 20th, let's get together for this event, which will be a huge success with your help and participation!

Our Open House and first day of school were full of fun times both for students and staff!

We are excited to announce that our new playground is coming soon! Construction is set to begin mid-September with an end of October completion date.

We are so excited to add our new playground for all our students to enjoy!

Back to School Packets are a way for parents to update any information that has changed in the family: home address, email addresses, telephone numbers, emergency contacts, etc.

Each year, before the start of the school year, ParentVue will require that you fill out the Back to School Packet before you can access your student's information.

If you have any questions or need assistance with this, please contact Tania Flores at FloresTP@PWCS.edu, o call the school office to request assistance.

Hello Panther Families! If you would like to watch S'more (the library guinea pig) for a weekend please sign up below. Please only select one weekend so lots of families have an opportunity to visit with S'more.
