Bridger Creative Science News
April 19, 2024
Dear Bridger Creative Science School Community, I hope you are all doing well as we finally find ourselves with some true spring weather! We are back on track with our weekly newsletter, and there is a ton of valuable information in this edition. Next week is Volunteer Appreciation Week, and I want to take a moment to thank all of our fantastic volunteers for their hard work and dedication. Our volunteers, whether they're SMART readers or part of our dynamic PTA, play a crucial role in making Bridger the amazing place it is. They organize after-school activities, support teachers, coordinate events like our whole-school campout, and manage fundraising efforts—all while embodying our school's values of collaboration and problem-solving. Looking ahead, we have several openings on the PTA board for next year. If you're interested in getting more involved, check out the flyer in our newsletter and reach out to pta@creativescienceschool.org for more info. Thanks again to all our volunteers for everything you do to support our school!
