🦃 Bruni Badgers Thank Our Community Heroes! 💙
We want to send a massive THANK YOU to three incredible community leaders for their generous Thanksgiving donation to our Bruni Badgers! 🙏

A huge shout-out to:

💙Webb County Justice of the Peace, Juan Paz

💙County Commissioner, Ricky Jaime

💙Constable, Lupillo Gomez

Your support is a true symbol of giving back to the community in this season of gratefulness. We are deeply thankful for your kindness and dedication to making a difference!

It's Word Wednesday! 🔤 Our special word this week is "Discuss" - the magic key that helps us share thoughts and ideas with friends, teachers, and family! 🗣️ When we discuss things, we learn from each other and solve problems together. Yesterday, our little scholars practiced this skill during circle time, taking turns to discuss their favorite books and why they loved them! 📚 Ask your child about a time they discussed something important today - their answers might surprise you! ✨ Remember, great discussions involve both talking AND listening! 👂

Be an Angel for a Bruni Student this Christmas! 😇🎄

The holiday season is upon us, and here at Bruni Elementary, we believe every child deserves to feel the magic of Christmas morning. We are officially kicking off our Christmas Angel Program!

We are looking for generous community members, parents, and local businesses to "adopt" a student and sponsor a toy this year. Your gift, no matter the size, puts a smile on a child's face and warmth in their heart.
SHARE this POST to spread the word!

A massive THANK YOU to all the parents, grandparents, and special friends who joined us for our "Read with a Loved One" event during Open House. The buzz in the room was absolutely magical.

There is nothing quite like seeing our students’ faces light up when they get to share their favorite stories with their favorite people. Moments like these remind us that reading isn't just about learning—it's about connection.

Thank you for taking the time out of your busy schedules to make memories with us!

It's LPAC Appreciation Week, and we want to honor a key member of our team: Mrs. Rebecca Martinez, our incredible LPAC Clerk! Mrs. Martinez is the backbone of our program, meticulously handling the organization, documentation, and compliance. Her dedication ensures that every one of our Emergent Bilingual students has the support and resources they need to succeed. Thank you for your tireless work and attention to detail! 🌟

📚 Word of the Week: "discuss" is taking center stage in our classroom! 🗣️ We've been exploring how to share ideas, listen to others, and have meaningful conversations. The kiddos are practicing using "discuss" in sentences like "Let's discuss what happened in the story" and "I want to discuss my project with you." They're learning that discussing means more than just talking—it's about exchanging thoughts and opinions! Some of our little debaters are already pros at discussion circles! 💭 Ask your child what they discussed in class today—you might be surprised by their conversation skills! 🌟

🤩Word of the Week - Diving into the world of inference this week! 🔍 Our young detectives are learning to "infer" - which means coming to conclusions based on clues and evidence. Just like real-life mystery solvers, they're practicing how to read between the lines in stories and figure out what happened to characters even when it's not directly stated. "I had to use my detective skills to infer what happened to the character in our story today!" 🕵️‍♀️📚 It's amazing to see their little minds connecting dots and making smart guesses based on what they know! Practice at home and at school, and build your vocabulary! 😊
