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 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.

Fall Knowledge Master Open
Nineteen spartans competed in the Knowledge Master Open. Above are nine of the students who participated and earned a ranking of 6th in state. Congrats to the students and Mrs. Wheaton.
SPARTAN SCIENCE
Ms. Bennett's 6th grade science class completed a lab about measuring the Skin Surface Area on the human body. Savanna Williams is being wrapped in newspaper by McKenzie Burns and Sydney Polite. The students carefully cut the newspaper off of Savanna and placed it in a rectangular shape on the ground so that it could be measured and calculated.
The Minority Council and Roots Club are currently working on several different projects.
The clubs have started offering tutoring after school on Mondays from 2:45-3:45 p.m. for any Bruner student who would like some extra help. They offer refreshments during our meetings. In addition to the tutoring, they are working on three fundraisers so that members can attend the Northwest Florida College Charter School in Niceville and Florida A & M University in Tallahassee, Florida. This is a positive and motivated place for youth. Please come and join them!!!
MAX BRUNER JR. MIDDLE SCHOOL EARNED AN 
FROM THE STATE OF FLORIDA... WAY TO GO SPARTANS!

TALLAHASSEE – Florida schools experienced their most successful year to date according to the 2009 school grades results released today. Driven by a significant increase in the number of “A” grades, more than three quarters of all public schools are considered to be high performing (receiving either an “A” or “B”), the largest number yet since the inception of school grades. The results also indicate that the number of schools earning an “F” decreased to its lowest point in three years.
“These results speak volumes for the hard work taking place in our classrooms and the excellent learning environments being provided by our schools,” said Governor Charlie Crist. “Florida is truly blessed to have such high quality teachers who have made our education system one of the best in the nation.”

At a Patriot Pep Rally The Okaloosa County Sheriffs Office, The Fort Walton Beach Police Department, The Fort Walton Beach Fire Department, and Okaloosa EMS were presented certificates from Mr. Spolski and Officer Bowell. This certificate acknowledged the dedication and memory of our emergency responders and as protectors of the Bruner community. It was approved and stamped with the official seal of Max Bruner Jr. Middle School.

A group of Spartans displayed the American Flag while the teachers and students paid tribute to our emergency responders.
 
Chief Litschauer of the Fort Walton Beach Police Department, Chief Ashley of the Okaloosa County Sheriffs Office, Engineer Music of the Fort Walton Beach Fire Department, and Paramedic Shipman of Okaloosa EMS received certificates, recognizing them as protectors of the Bruner community. Deputy Kevin Foy of the Okaloosa County Sheriffs Office marched during the inspirational rally while playing Amazing Grace on the bagpipes.
