A Message from Principal Dumar

Bradfield Families,

As we begin wrapping up our Thanksgiving break, I hope you enjoyed your traditions and maybe created a few new ones. In the Dumar house it was full of family time, baking, laughing and a lot of relaxation. I hope your family enjoyed the same. It truly does a body good when one can spend time with loved ones and soak up the good times!

Thank you to our former librarian, Amy Jent, for ensuring our Broncos did not miss out on a special author visit, the week before Thanksgiving break. Children’s author, Tammi Sauer, was full of energy and definitely entertaining for PreK-4th grade students. Ms. Sauer told stories, encouraged audience participation and encouraged students to channel their inner author.

Last week’s Writer of the Week was second grader, Cordelia Taylor, from Mrs. Webster’s class. Her assignment was to write an Informational book where Cordelia chose to write about the Amazing Species of Ducks. She provided facts about how to handle ducks, their life cycles and highlighted cute ducklings. Her beautiful illustrations added a special touch to the non-fiction book. Thank you, Cordelia, for sharing many important details about the amazing species of ducks.

If you didn’t have time to check out Broncoland Photos the week before Thanksgiving break, I encourage you to do so now.

I look forward to seeing you and your children at the front door!

A Message from our PTA President, Laura McCallan

Welcome back, Broncos! I hope you enjoyed your week off from school and the hustle and bustle of life as much as I did! It’s hard to believe we have only a few weeks left of the 1st half of our school year.

Before we left for the break, the PTA Executive Board & Dads Club Exec met with Principal Dumar and other school administrators to discuss the Fall PTA Gift Request. If you’re not familiar with this process, school administration meets with PTA Exec & Dads Club Exec once in the Fall and once in the Spring to discuss what our fundraising efforts can do to support our school. I am so excited to announce that the PTA approved a Fall gift of $117,548 & the Dads Club approved a Fall gift of $28,740! I am so thankful for each and every family in our community for your generosity and support in our fundraising efforts. Supporting our school and staff is our “WHY” for everything we do. THANK YOU!!

Go Broncos!
