Attendance Update

Parents, as a safety concern, we would appreciate that you do not drop off your students at school before 7:00 AM.  Our cafeteria is open at 7:00 for the convenience of students needing to be at school before our official day begins.  The hallways are open at 7:20 for students needing to attend to their lockers or needing time in our Media Center before the first bell at 7:40.

Please enter Bruner Middle School through the double doors near our Attendance Office.  All exterior doors will be secured during the regular school day. After school visiting hours begin at 2:45.  Exceptions will be allowed for those providing transportation for siblings.

Parent Note

Responsibility is an important part of the developmental process. Please help your student(s) remember to bring locks for their gym lockers and bikes. Also, please talk with your Spartans about not sharing their school lockers.  We have assigned a locker to each Spartan for their valuables. Personal electronic items, such as IPODs, cameras, Gameboys, Playstations are not allowed on school property and will be confiscated by our administrators.

 

 

Bruner Middle School participates in Scholastic Reading Counts, a literature-based reading motivation and management program. Students read RC books and take computer-managed quizzes. Successful quiz scores earn points, and students are allowed to exchange points for prizes. Check in the media center for current prize availability. At the end of the school year, students are awarded reading medals for point totals.

Future Spartan parents and students from the 5th grade visited Wednesday in the media center. The 6th grade teachers and counselors hosted the conferences and discussed the important transition details regarding middle school.

Thanks to all the Spartan faculty and staff that welcomed the new 6th grade Spartans to Bruner.


Glenn Coffee of the San Francisco 49ers

visited Coach Vinson and spoke to some young Spartans about setting goals and working hard.

Coffee is currently playing in the NFL after starring at Fort Walton Beach High and the University of Alabama. He played football at Bruner in 1999 and 2000, helping lead the Spartans to an 8-0 record as an eighth grader.

“If there was any example to come through this school of how to work hard and keep your goals set high and make sure everything in your life stays straight … Glen Coffee is a prime example of just that,” Vinson said.


"We actually pay attention more. My grades are better."...Jaden Betts 8th grade

The gender specific education program at Bruner Middle School is tracking the progress of both the boys and the girls. Patricia Branagan of L3 Communications visited Bruner to get an inside look at the program in action.

Teacher Helen Holt has noticed that the students in the single-gender classes have shown a surprising level of kindness to each other.
