Bryan Middle Weekly Newsletter
Friday, September 17th, 2021
Hello Bryan Middle Families!
This week was another great week for the Bears of Bryan Middle School. Students started working on the Reading portion of the MAP assessment. Students will be able to share their results with you during parent teacher conferences on October 13 or 14. In addition, we had an opportunity to welcome families into the building during Open House on Tuesday! It was great seeing students excited to showcase what they are learning in the classroom. If you would like to give feedback about open house, or Bryan Middle School in general, click here to complete a short survey.
TikTok/Social Media: As was seen in the news there have been trends on social media involving stealing school related items, and dismantling soap dispensers. Please have a conversation with your student about these as it impacts the learning environment at Bryan Middle School. In addition, talk to your student about cell phone use in school.
Title 1: In last week’s newsletter, we shared three documents that related to our Title I plan. We would like your feedback on these. Please take a moment to review those documents, and then complete this survey. Click here to access.
No School: With the next additions to the school calendar, we will not have school on September 24. This will be a teacher workday. We also do not have school on October 1 for a curriculum day.
Thank you,
Andrew Karmazin

TikTok / Redes sociales: Como se vio en las noticias, ha habido tendencias en las redes sociales que involucran el robo de artículos relacionados con la escuela y el desmantelamiento de dispensadores de jabón. Por favor tenga una conversación con su estudiante sobre estos ya que impactan el ambiente de aprendizaje en Bryan Middle School. Además, hable con su estudiante sobre el uso del teléfono celular en la escuela.
Título 1: En el boletín de la semana pasada, compartimos tres documentos relacionados con nuestro plan de Título I. Nos gustaría recibir sus comentarios sobre estos. Tómese un momento para revisar esos documentos y luego complete esta encuesta. Haga clic aquí para acceder.
No hay clases: Con las próximas adiciones al calendario escolar, no tendremos clases el 24 de septiembre. Este será un día laboral para maestros. Tampoco tenemos clases el 1 de octubre como día del plan de estudios.
Gracias,
