Bremen Public Schools

The 10th Grade English Honors class recently completed a project where they had to rewrite a Fairy Tale. In class, a central topic has been about the fact that Grimm's Fairy Tales were not always "appropriate" for children, even though most people think of "fairy tales" as stories for children. So, the assignment was to omit content such as violence and scary situations and replace them with silly or spontaneous events and circumstances to make the story more palatable for children (kinda like what Disney has done). Their results were outstanding! They had a chance to read to Mrs. Moser's 3rd-grade students on Tuesday and again on Wednesday to the kindergarteners in Mrs. Corwin's class. Everyone had a great time. Here are some photos of the students reading to Mrs. Corwin's students.

The Bremen Boys & Girls Club and the Bremen Partnership for Education are 2 organizations that remain near and dear to her heart. You can often find Suzanne at various sporting events, musicals and performances at the high school.

A huge thank you to Heather & Abi at Roxy’s Heavenly Scoops for graciously hosting Ms. Knisley’s Culinary pathway students. Students learned about ice cream vendors, how to make waffle cones, and got some inspiration on what it takes to start your own business. They shared the hard work it took to make their dream become a reality as entrepreneurs in the small town they love, encouraging students to follow their dreams. Thank you ladies for sharing your story with us!!
