BRMS Families,
That last time I saw some of you and many of our students was at our Fall/ Halloween dance! The event was outstanding. I saw students dancing, snacking, basketballing and playing (in the gym next to the cafeteria). It’s the best to see our students being… kids. The BRMS Student Council put together an outstanding event for our students, thank you for your support, and for helping your students to attend.
This week was a great week to be a member of the wolfpack as we sent our 6th and 7th graders to see high school productions (Clue and The Giver). Reports back from teachers and students was outstanding! Our students represented our school well, and enjoyed the plays. Our grade-level teams did an outstanding job of planning creative and engaging activities to follow up and make connections to the productions we saw, and the content they’re learning in class. Below my newsletter, you can see some pictures from your beloved 6th grade teachers, who are main characters in a “Clue” game Bill Reed Style. Do you know who is who?
Next week is Halloween. Again, I feel like there should be some educators on some kind of national calendar committee whose only purpose is to move holidays around so they DON’T wind up on a Thursday. Like ever. With that being said, We are celebrating fall fun on that day with costumes. If students would like to come to school dressed up! HALLOWEEN DAY IS THAT DAY!
We must be able to see faces (no masks worn on faces)
Face painting is ok on Halloween day
No blood/ gore
Costumes must appropriately cover student bodies (age-appropriate)
No weapons or weapon facsimiles
If in doubt, feel free to ask (john.kleiber@tsd.org or gwynne.johnson@tsd.org)

The Thompson School District Nutrition Services department is dedicated to providing delicious meals that support student growth and achievement.
Great care is taken by highly qualified staff to ensure Thompson School District’s breakfast and lunch menus meet or exceed United States Department of Agriculture (USDA) quality and nutrition standards. We source clean label, fresh and local items to include in our recipes and menus. Our department adheres to strict food safety standards and practices to keep customers safe and healthy.
With the passage of Healthy School Meals for All in Colorado, we are excited to be able to offer breakfast and lunch at no cost to students, regardless of income or meal benefit status.
All families are still asked to fill out an application. Why? The Healthy School Meals for All (HSMA) program is funded in partnership with federal nutrition programs that rely on income information to support meals for all students. Other state and federal grants are awarded based on free and reduced meal eligibility rates. Additionally, families that qualify may receive discounted or waived fees for programs inside and outside of the school district. Applications are available to all households at school sites and online at https://linqconnect.com/main.
Applications need to be completed annually (after mid-July) for the new school year. The information provided on the application is confidential and is not shared without your consent. If you would like to share the information with the school, please be sure to check the box on the application. This will help us in ensuring fees are cleared as applicable.
While meals are free for all students this year you may want to have funds available for additional meal components and / or a la carte purchases like snacks or milk.
Nutrition Services is excited to share that we have contracted with a new software company to manage our meal and application program. My School Bucks is no longer active but the new software is called LINQ Connect and all student balances have been moved to the new software. There are many new features that this program offers which weren't available before so we're sure you're going to love it!
Please visit the link below to register and create an account along with frequently asked questions.

We also accept cash and checks at each school’s cafeteria; please give cash or checks directly to your school’s cafeteria staff.
Please help sustain the meal programs by keeping your student’s account current or filling out an application for benefits.
