Hello Bradfield Families!
Some of you may have noticed a new principal and counselor on Friday while Mrs. Adams and I took the day off! A big thank you to third grader, Emma Diehl, Principal of the Day and fourth grader, Chloe Gillette, Counselor of the Day who did an amazing job running Bradfield. These young ladies were constantly on the move as they provided affirmations and support to the staff, took time to create lessons and read to the students, conducted safety assessments and squeezed in a little time to do lunch duty. They definitely worked longer than “9:00 to 5:00!” Mrs. Adams and I know who to call when we need a substitute in the future. Thank you, Emma and Chloe!

I want to take this time to wish our third and fourth grade students best of luck this Wednesday as they take the STAAR reading assessment. Students have been working hard on learning the new format with critical responses. I have no doubt they will show the state of Texas how smart Bradfield Broncos are while taking the test.
Because of the STAAR assessment, and the state guidelines we must follow, parents, visitors or volunteers will not be allowed past the office, Wednesday. The only exception are cafeteria volunteers. Thank you for understanding.
The writer of the week was fourth grader, Sam Pate, from Ms. VonEnde’s class. His assignment was to write a critical response using facts to persuade the listener why they should visit the Titanic. We learned an interesting fact about the prediction of how much longer the Titanic would possibly last due to bacteria eating away at the metal. Great job, Sam!

First-fourth grade parents should have received an email from the district last Monday regarding the new Texas learning standards for Health. In accordance with state law and Board policy EHAA(LOCAL), the Highland Park Independent School District provides instruction relating to reproduction, sexual health, and the prevention of child abuse, family violence, dating violence, and human trafficking. As the law requires, the district must obtain written consent before we can provide a student with instruction on these topics. Instruction is scheduled to begin within the next month.
