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

single-gender classes have shown a surprising level
of kindness to each other.
