Wow, only 4 days of school left to the year!<\/div>\n
Friendly reminder that there is no school on Memorial day, and the last day of school on May 30th is a minimum day.<\/div>\n
Congratulations to our 5th grader for finishing their elementary chapter! 5th grade promotion is on Wednesday, May 28th at 8:30am in the MUR.

Safety Reminder<\/h2><\/td><\/tr><\/tbody><\/table>\n
Please walk your bicycles or scooter on campus at all times during school hours. There has been multiple injuries, close calls and complaints related to wheels going too fast around people. This applies to younger siblings that comes with smaller rides during pick-up and drop-off. The Bringhurst community appreciates all cooperation towards maintaining safety around our campus.<\/div><\/div>\n<\/td><\/tr><\/tbody><\/table><\/div>\n\n<\/div><\/td><\/tr><\/tbody><\/table>\n

Bringhurst Traffic Reminders<\/h2><\/td><\/tr><\/tbody><\/table>\n
\n
We have gotten feedback and want to ensure our pick-up and drop-off traffic is safe for both students and adults<\/strong>. In order to do so, we need all Blazers to cooperate with the traffic rules below:<\/div>\n

<\/div>\n
Front Traffic Loop<\/strong><\/div>\n
    \n
  1. ONE-LANE VALET - traffic cones have been put in place to create 1 lane only through the loop. Please do NOT create a left lane. It is very dangerous and creates risks for collisions.<\/li>\n
  2. NO LEFT TURN FROM WISDOM - kindly plan your drive to school so you can enter the valet line by turning right. Turning left from Wisdom creates a gridlock for cars exiting the loop and halts the flow of traffic.<\/li>\n
  3. DO NOT USE THE STAFF PARKING LOT - whether it's parking in the teacher's lot or using it to drop-off\/pick-up students, the staff parking lot is meant for teachers to come and go from their work place. Please park on the street or use the valet line\/Insight for drop off.<\/li>\n
  4. HANDICAP PARKING - Families who need handicap parking may use the staff parking lot. Please make sure you move the cones back in place once you've entered.<\/li>\n
  5. STAY IN YOUR CAR AT ALL TIME - if you leave your car unattended (or stay parked) in the valet loop during pick-up and drop-off, it instantly backs up the traffic. Please stay in your car and be ready to move to alleviate congestion.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    <\/div>\n
    Insight Street<\/strong><\/div>\n
    Insight Street is not an official school drop off pick up zone. At this time, the city does not own Insight street. When that time comes, our school will work with the city to make it an appropriate safe drop-off\/pick-up loop. However, if you choose to continue to use this street, please be mindful of the following:<\/div>\n
      \n
    1. BE SAFE - as one of our Blazer core value, please teach your child traffic safety when using Insight street as a drop-off and pick-up area. Stay on the sidewalk, look both ways before crossing, and any habits that can keep them safe!<\/li>\n
    2. NO U-TURN - there is a cone to prevent U-turns on Insight street. Please, respect the cones!<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

      <\/div>\n
      Please help us inform other parents of these reminders and be a part of the solution to our traffic problem!<\/strong><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/td><\/tr><\/tbody><\/table>\n

      Language-Specific Groups for Parents!<\/h2><\/td><\/tr><\/tbody><\/table>\n
      \n
      PTO has now created language-specific groups for Bringhurst parents! As a community, we want to make sure every parent can feel included and a part of our Bringhurst family. With language specific groups, hopefully you can connect with other parents who speak the same home\/preferred language as you. The main \"All Parents Chat\" group is English. If there are more language groups to create, please email: vp.bringhurstpto@gmail.com<\/a>. These groups will also contain translated announcements from the school and from PTO, so parents will always know what is going on!<\/div>\n
