From the Principal’s Desk:
Dear BMS Parents and Families,
It’s hard to imagine that there are only a few
weeks of school left. I want to take this
opportunity to thank everyone for making this
such a wonderful and productive year. The
support from both the staff and families has
been tremendous. In addition, the cooperative
and respectful behavior of the students has
made every day a pleasure to be here. I truly
appreciate everything that you all contribute
to make the Brennan Middle School such a
warm and nurturing environment.
The month of June will be very busy
with planned events such as the School
Barbecue, Spring Concert, field trips, Field
Day activities, and the End of the Year Award
Ceremonies.
We urge you to keep this
newsletter handy as you may need to refer to
it throughout the month with times of events
related to your child/ren’s grade levels.
As many of you already know,
Wednesday, June 26th is the last day of school.
It is an early release day and students will be
dismissed at 11:30 a.m. Enjoy all of the end of
year celebrations and field trips as this school
year comes to an end.
I look forward to beginning my fifth
year as Principal at Brennan Middle School
with the strong, instructional force of our very
committed staff, along with the wonderful
support of our parents and families. It is truly
a pleasure to serve in this important role as we
all work together with our vision for
continued progress.
I wish you all a safe and relaxing
summer. See you in September!!!
Warm regards,
Karen Saltzman
