Yesterday, ABC57 visited Bremen High School to experience Mr. Simpson’s 9/11 lesson: an immersive experience designed to help students understand September 11, 2001 beyond the pages of a textbook. Through storytelling and perspective, Mr. Simpson brought students into the moments, experiences, and emotions surrounding that day, creating space for them to listen, reflect, and better understand an event that forever changed our nation. We honor the lives lost, the heroes who responded, the families forever changed, and the spirit of unity and resilience that followed.

It was humbling to witness the community pride and support at our gold game last night. #RomanStrong

Lion Lens completed our high school staff and student portraits this morning! This group is taking the place of Lifetouch with the goals of: providing students with real-life work/learning experiences, limiting turnaround time and cost to parents (QR codes will be coming home with quicker access to photos than normal), and earning income that goes directly back to benefitting students. We had 2 pilots last year with senior and 5th grade portraits, but acknowledge there will likely be a learning curve with this new process. Thank you in advance for your patience and support!

Throwback Thursday: Band has been a proud part of Bremen tradition since the beginning!

Reminder: Our next home football game is this Friday (September 11th) vs. LaVille. Everyone is encouraged to wear gold in support of our Kindergarten student currently battling cancer. All Bremen Kindergartners get into the game free! Let's come together to remind Roman that he's not alone in this.

Thank you to Bremen PTO for repainting the steps that lead down to the track and football field! Go Big Green!

Picture Day is COMING!

Ms. Knisley’s concession workers enjoyed a fun outing to tour Notre Dame’s campus and attend the South Bend Cubs game. It was a great bonding experience for our crew outside the classroom & concession stand. Four students were brave enough to participate in an on-field activity led by Cubs personnel. It was a hot but fun evening, making lasting memories for everyone. A special thank you to Southwire for generously donating the tickets to the Cubs game! We truly appreciate your generous support of our students.

Please be aware of the following transportation delays:

Bus #15 may be running late today.
The Meijer bus will be running late. Two mini buses will be used as replacements.

Thank you for your patience and understanding!

Join us in welcoming our new Special Education Teacher! In her words: "My name is Ms. Kozlowicz, and I was born and raised in Oak Lawn, Il. I now live in Edwardsburg, MI. This year I will be the Special Education 2nd/3rd Grade Teacher. I have taught several different grades. I taught in Ridgeland School District 122 for 26 years and I also attended there. I taught 1st grade for eighteen years, 2nd for three years, 3rd grade for two years, 4th grade for one year and 5th grade for two years. I am looking forward to spending my twenty-eighth year here at Bremen! Bremen has a great community and each school’s staff goes out of their way to show how much they care for the children. I received my bachelor’s from Eastern Illinois University in Illinois and a master’s from Governors State University in Illinois. I have worked with children consistently since I was in high school from Discovery Zone to the Swim program at Oak Lawn Community High School (12 years). When I am not teaching you can find me outside with my dog Java, gardening or inside watching a good movie. I love to water ski and knee board at my parents’ lake house. Being outside is where you will find me!"

Throwback Thursday: Cheerleading then and now!
