🌟 Capturing Kids’ Hearts – April Monthly Trait: Perseverance 🌟
This month at Brusly Elementary, we are focusing on the Capturing Kids’ Hearts trait of Perseverance! 💪✨
We are encouraging our students to work hard, stay determined, and keep trying—even when things feel challenging. Perseverance helps children learn that mistakes are part of learning and that success comes from not giving up. 📚🌈
We are excited to partner with our families to celebrate each child’s progress and achievements—both big and small! 🏆👏
🏡 At home, look for opportunities to teach, encourage, and model perseverance by reminding your child that effort matters and hard work pays off.
Together, we can help our students grow into confident learners who keep going no matter what! ❤️🐾

We are thrilled to announce that we are launching the Beacon Connect Family App on MONDAY!
We know that keeping track of your student’s commute is a top priority. With the new Beacon Connect Family App, you’ll have real-time visibility and updates right at your fingertips. See more information here: Go Beacon App Information
What can you do with the app?
Live Tracking: See your child’s school bus location in real-time.
Custom Notifications: Set up "Alert Zones" (like Home or Grandma’s house) to get notified when the bus is nearby.
Arrival Updates: Receive alerts for boarding, arrivals, and any unexpected delays.

Being at school each day, and arriving on time, makes a huge difference in your child’s learning, friendships, and confidence. When students attend regularly, they stay connected, build strong routines, and don’t miss important instruction.
Let’s work together to make attendance a top priority this month!
✔️ Schedule appointments after school when possible
✔️ Aim for on-time arrival every morning
✔️ Send doctor excuses to the office
Thank you for partnering with us to support our students’ success. We love seeing our classrooms full!
Our fundraiser is in full swing, and we need your help! We have currently raised over $10,000 toward our goal.
In addition, every single student who signs up gets to participate in the fun—so don’t miss out on the medal dash!
