If you haven't been in BRES school lately, you are missing out! Along with great learning and teaching our students are having wonderful opportunities to observe and participate in various cultural arts activities. Our Silk Banner Project has wrapped up and we are now in the final stages of the work. Ms. Stephenson and our PTA joined forces to bring Leni Newell a nationally recognized artist to BRES to collaborate with our students and leave a visual legacy here in the front foyer of the school. Look at the pictures below for a glimpse at the banners in progress.
