Hello, Bernshausen Families!

Dear Bernshausen Families,

See you soon!


Mr. Menendez

Field Day is on November 22nd!

  • NEW UPDATE AS OF 11-17-24: Early Dismissal on Field Day:


  • The FINAL DAY to RSVP is Thursday, 11/21 at 12pm


  • Please Note: Only parents/guardians who appear on Skyward as authorized for "pick up" will be able to sign students out from their classrooms. If your name does not appear as an adult authorized for "pick up" on Skyward, you will not be able to remove the student from the classroom and will be asked to visit our Front Office for support.

Families Arriving to School on Field Day

  • The information below is the same that appeared on the 11/10 & 11/17 Family Newsletters:
  • RSVP: By completing this RSVP form, the Front Office staff will be able to print a name tag for you in advance, so you do not have to be scanned in the Front Office on the day of the event. You will be able to pick up your pre-printed visitor's tag near the Front Entrance the morning of 11/22.

  • IMPORTANT for RSVPs: In order for your visitor's sticker to be printed ahead of time, your TX driver's license must have been scanned by the Front Office during the 2024-2025 school year. If you have not had your ID/Driver's License scanned by the Front Office this school year, you are welcome to visit our Front Office before 11/22 to have it scanned.

  • Any extended family member, (e.g. grandparents, aunts, uncles, etc.) will still have to scan their TX Driver's License in the Front Office, if they are attending Field Day.


Please read carefully:
