Anyone who has opened their recent tax bills has noticed that there has been a significant increase in tax liability for the upcoming payments. Looking at the tax notice for my home, my property taxes increased by $320 over last year. I feel it is important to point out that this increase is a result of increasing property values and not an action taken by the school. According to the county, my home’s value increased $52,000 from 2022 to 2023, thus the increase in tax obligations. I understand that the net result is the same (higher taxes), but I thought it important to clarify the cause of the increase.
Please feel free to contact me if you would like to know more or discuss this further.

Beginning over spring break, workers are going remove several windows to begin the process of window replacement and waterproofing at Bremen Elementary Middle School. When we return the second week of April, there will be several classrooms that will have temporary enclosures in place of windows. While this will be inconvenient, it will be safe and a necessary part of our overall project. The scope of this project is quite large and getting a head start prior to summer gives our contractors the best chance of minimizing the impact to instruction next fall. Thank you for your patience as we work to make our facilities better for our staff and students.
The Mobile Dentist will be held on Wednesday, April 26th. Forms will go home in the next couple of days for students in Grades K-8. If you have a high school student and need a form, please contact the school nurse.

In the past couple of weeks we have been having several last minute early dismissals. Please try to avoid waiting until you need to pick up your child to call and let us know. We prefer a note, e-mail, or phone call in the morning to assure that we can let the teacher know to have the child ready. When it is last minute pickup, you may need to wait longer for your child due to being in a different class, recess, or lunch. We do understand situations arise and you may need last minute pickup but we ask that you try to avoid this as much as possible.
Please encourage your children who walk to school from north of Plymouth Street to PLEASE cross where we have a crossing guard. It is worth a few extra steps to ensure that our students cross safely.
