Check-In Procedures End-of-Year Events
Parents & Guardians,
As the end of the year approaches, there are numerous end-of-year events on the calendar. In order to help eliminate check-in lines and assist you in a timely arrival, we are sending event tickets home with your child, specific to the events calendared. Please utilize this procedure for expedited entry. Arrive with your event ticket and ID. If you do not have an event ticket, expect to check-in at the front office with your ID which is a more time consuming process.
Additionally, special events are NOT check-out early days. We kindly request that parents avoid checking students out early after events are concluded. Please allow your child to complete the day at school.
Party on the Pavilion Registration Incentive
Registration for the 2024-25 school year is open now.

Survey Opportunity
Starting May 12th our school will be administering the Measurable Results Assessment (MRA), a survey and reporting system designed to provide insights into the progress of our school. In order to provide a holistic picture of what is going on in our school, the MRA includes three different surveys;
1) one completed by all school staff,
2) one completed by students, and
3) one completed by the families of students in all grades.
We hope you will participate so we can use the feedback to make our school an even better place for students and families. If you have any questions about the surveys or wish to see a list of questions, please contact the school’s front office.
FAMILY SURVEY
WHAT: Online survey completed by one member of each household.
- Survey typically takes about 5 minutes to complete
- Questions relate to the experiences you and your child have at our school.
- Answers are anonymous--to encourage people to be honest and open, no names and other identifying information will be collected.
WHEN: The survey is now available for you to take through May 20, 2024.
HOW: The survey can be taken from any computer, smartphone, or tablet with internet access.
- Mrs. Hoffman sent an email to families with a link to the survey.
Attendance Matters
Bertram's ADA for this past week was 94.13%.
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%!
