Happy National School Resource Officer Day!

Today, we celebrate Officer Wes, who is a vital part of our Bremen Public Schools family!

This year marks our first with a full-time School Resource Officer, and Officer Wes has been instrumental in building positive relationships with our students while ensuring a safe learning environment. He is so much more than security—he’s a mentor, an educator, and a friendly face in the hallways.

Thank you, Officer Wes, for pioneering this essential role at BPS! We appreciate your commitment to our students every single day.

Thank you to Everwise for sponsoring a fun night out for Sarah Peterson and her son to see Nate Bargatze! We appreciate the way this community partner sparks joy in our team!

This week, Mrs. Meister's Textiles, Apparel, & Merchandising class had the privilege of hosting Mrs. Sarai Jimenez, (BHS grad) and owner of Olive & Co. She shared her background and the journey of opening her retail salon and boutique with students. The class was then able to visit the store, scan and tag merchandise to stock, arrange a display, and even do a little shopping!

Student Spotlight: Casey Ton was awarded his Eagle Scout ranking at a Board of Review ceremony in Elkhart on Tuesday, February 10, 2026. For his project, he secured benches for the Bremen pickleball court. This involved researching benches, working with the Bremen Parks Department and the Bremen Pickleball Club, raising funds through community organizations, and then assembling and installing the benches. This summer, Casey will be traveling to New Mexico where he will hike at Philmont, a Scout camp, for two weeks. Casey and his group will hike over 60 miles, live outdoors, and carry all the supplies for the entire trip in a backpack. Casey, a junior at Bremen High School, plans to become an airline pilot after graduation. He is a three year member of the Bremen HS Baseball team and works part-time at the Wooden Peel.
