We spy walls! The high school construction project continues, and you can now see the footprint of the new space. If all continues according to schedule, the front office staff will move spaces near the end of this school year!
Join us in welcoming Justin Bogunia to our teaching team, pending Board approval!
In his words: "I am excited to begin a new chapter as the Industrial Technology teacher while also continuing my second year as the Head Football Coach of the Bremen Lions. This opportunity is especially meaningful to me because Bremen is home. I attended Bremen Public Schools and graduated from Bremen High School. Coming back to teach and coach at the school that played such an important role in my life is something I am extremely proud of.
I earned my bachelor’s degree from the University of Evansville and my master’s degree from Indiana University. I have spent much of my career working with young people as a teacher, coach, athletic director, and mentor. In my Industrial Technology classroom, I want students to learn by doing and take pride in what they accomplish. I want to help them develop practical skills while also teaching problem-solving, responsibility, teamwork, and work ethic. I believe many of the lessons we teach through athletics apply directly to the classroom and eventually to the workplace. My goal is to help prepare students to be successful.
I am grateful for the opportunity to give back to the school and community that helped shape me. It is special to walk the same halls where I was once a student and to now have the opportunity to teach and coach the next generation of Bremen Lions. It feels great to be home."
5th-8th grade picture day is underway! Thank you to Bremen PTO for supporting and ensuring everyone's hair is "mom approved," as you've done in previous years.
Based on parent feedback, K-8 students' access codes will be their lunch account numbers. Like the high school, we will let you know when photos are ready to view/order!
Join us in welcoming Clare!
In her words: "My name is Clare Malkowski, and I am excited to be a part of the Bremen community as the high school ENL teacher! After spending the last 4 years as a special education teacher at a neighboring school, I look forward to this new adventure and the students I get to work with. I have received nothing but support in my new position and appreciate how welcome I’ve felt. When I’m not teaching, I enjoy thrifting, traveling, being on the water, and spending time with my 3 dogs and family. I also became a first-time homeowner last month and have spent a lot of time making it my own and tending to the garden I have adopted."

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!
Bremen High School: Picture day is Thursday!

Enjoy the long weekend, Lions!
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.
