Bear Blast
May 11, 2024
Good morning, Bradley Families,
To all of our wonderful moms (and grandmas, aunts, and all who play that role) out there - HAPPY MOTHER'S DAY TO YOU! I have instructed the kids to take care of you this weekend -- to scrub a toilet (or two)😇, to clean their rooms, to be kind to their siblings, and just celebrate YOU!
We completed week one of MAP testing. Two to go! Math is this week, and science is next. We also just finished Teacher Appreciation Week -- a big shout-out to our PTA and Counseling team who made the "Western Celebration" themed week so special for our teachers. We have a wonderful group who deserve to be celebrated. There are some pictures below to show off some of the fun.
There are 14 more days of school. I am going to keep reminding and asking for your help to discuss the importance of "staying the course" and finish strong academically, AND ensuring that behaviors keep in check. Like I mentioned the last few weeks, we have seen the students become much more spirited in the halls, the cafeteria, and in the classrooms. Our policies and procedures are still the same, and we will be disciplining any behaviors that are inappropriate. I very much appreciate your help and support as we all continue to navigate through these last few weeks of school.
*NOTE - we will NOT be mailing final report cards home, they will be available in Skyward.

Buenos días, familias Bradley,
A todas nuestras maravillosas mamás (y abuelas, tías y todos los que desempeñan ese papel): ¡FELIZ DÍA DE LA MADRE PARA USTEDES! He dado instrucciones a los niños para que cuiden de ti este fin de semana: que limpien un inodoro (o dos), 😇 que limpien sus habitaciones, que sean amables con sus hermanos y que simplemente te celebren.
Completamos la primera semana de pruebas de MAP. ¡Faltan dos! Las matemáticas son esta semana, y las ciencias son la siguiente. También acabamos de terminar la Semana de Agradecimiento a los Maestros, un gran agradecimiento a nuestro equipo de PTA y Consejería que hizo que la semana temática de la "Celebración del Oeste" fuera tan especial para nuestros maestros. Tenemos un grupo maravilloso que merece ser celebrado. Hay algunas imágenes a continuación para mostrar algo de la diversión.
Quedan 14 días más de clases. Voy a seguir recordándoles y pidiéndoles ayuda para discutir la importancia de "mantener el rumbo" y terminar fuerte académicamente, Y asegurar que los comportamientos se mantengan bajo control. Como mencioné en las últimas semanas, hemos visto que los estudiantes se han vuelto mucho más animados en los pasillos, la cafetería y en las aulas. Nuestras políticas y procedimientos siguen siendo los mismos, y disciplinaremos cualquier comportamiento que sea inapropiado. Agradezco mucho su ayuda y apoyo mientras todos continuamos navegando a través de estas últimas semanas de escuela.
*NOTA: NO enviaremos por correo las boletas de calificaciones finales a casa, estarán disponibles en Skyward.
