A reminder that we are kicking off Homecoming week on Sunday night by recognizing our newest member of the Wall of Fame, Mrs. Bonnie Trenkle. The introduction of the court and crowning of the king and queen will happen right afterwards. All of this takes place in Moore Gym at BRHS and starts at 6:00 p.m. There will be a reception for Mrs. Trenkle in the library following the coronation ceremony. We invite anyone who was influenced by Mrs. Trenkle to join us as we welcome her to the wall.

Today in the library skills, 2nd & 3rd graders investigated "Crimes Against Books" while learning about library book care. They acted as Library CSIs and decided what crime had been committed: a little sister coloring with markers? A family pet who thought the book was a toy? They used their clues to decide!
Mansfield is currently under a boil order, and all water fountains have been disabled at BRIJHS. Please consider sending a filled water bottle with your student until the boil order is lifted.
