Welcome to Team Ion!

Hello!   

We can’t wait to bond with you!


Holly, Kate, Martha (Ms. Nicolle, Ms. Roberge, and Mx. Erickson)


This is a quick check in that we hope will find you well and help make it easier for everyone to get charged up for a new school year.  Mx. Erickson, Ms. Nicolle, and Ms.Roberge are ready to have everyone come together on their (9am-10am in person) Move Up Day next Thursday (The Atoms on the 3rd) and Friday (The Bonds on the 4th).


Right off the bat, please mark your calendars for an informal before-school-starts FIRST EVER Virtual Watermelon Welcome on Tuesday September 1st from 6-7 pm. All you will need to do is click a Google Meet invite that we will send on Tuesday. You can virtually stop by and get re-connected or bond with some new people. We hope you are able to make it, and at the same time know that many families are busy and will not be able to fit it into their schedules. We look forward to the other times Team ION and the whole BRMS community will come together throughout the year. 


School Supplies


It’s always exciting to shop for school supplies, but please know that we like to keep it simple. Take a look at that list to the left...that’s what we ordered for our team. The X-marks show the supplies that have made it to BRMS. Hee hee hee! Once everything comes in students will have 5 composition books, pencils, colored pencils, pens, pencil sharpeners, post it notes, scissors, dry erase markers, earbuds, markers, glue sticks, individual white boards and cap erasers!


  • Students can make sure to bring 3 face masks, a water bottle (one with a straw will make it easier to use) and a personal mini hand sanitizer (optional- we have hand sanitizer pumps all over the school/ classroom).


Reinvigorate your school mindset


  • Find a good book! If you haven’t met Mrs. Thompson, our librarian, check out the BRMS library info site:  https://brm.opalsinfo.net/bin/home

  • Take a look at Team ION’s blog, subscribe to the emails and save it to your bookmarks.

  • Come to the virtual Watermelon Welcome 8/1/2020 from 6-7.


Some-mer thoughts


  • Get outside, soak up the sun, and have some more adventures!

  • Think about what are some of the ways you enjoyed your summer.         


Stay positive.

Wear a mask.
