What a wonderful turnout tonight at our PTA General Meeting and Student Character Trait Recognition Awards! Thank you so much for spending your Tuesday night with us here at BRES. Tonight our PTA shared the wonderful news that we will be getting a shade structure installed on the 3-5 playground, picnic tables, and umbrellas for the staff and students to enjoy throughout the summer and fall. Our PTA did an outstanding job with the Capital Campaign to raise the funds for the shade structure and they also received a matching grant from Wake County.
Speaking of our wonderful PTA, tonight we elected new members to posts for the upcoming 2012-2013 school year. A big thank you goes out to parents who have taken on these positions to support our school: Michelle Mendler-President, Jenn Giancola-VP, Susan Naylor-Secretary, Thaihien Hicks-Treasurer and Nathan Luke-VP. There are several positions still vacant if anyone is interested. It is a wonderful opportunity to become involved and support BRES.
Good character is appreciated here at BRES. We understand that each day we have an opportunity to build up and strengthen character education in our students. Tonight we took the time to honor students in Kindergarten to Fifth Grade who demonstrate good character. Over 40 students were recognized in all! Thank you to the families who came out tonight to see the formal recognition. This is an event that I hope will become a Trailblazer Tradition!
Just a reminder about this Saturday. Come on out with your green thumb, wheelbarrow, and gardening tools for our Spring Beautification Day from 9 a.m. until Noon. We will be here sprucing up our campus just in time for some beautiful spring weather.
As always, thank you for what you do each day to support BRES as we continue to BLAZE the TRAIL to SUCCESS!
