SIXTH GRADE PARENTS:  The State of Connecticut requires all sixth grade students to have a physical examination and immunization update done by your child’s primary care provider during the sixth grade school year.  An exam done during fifth grade is still acceptable.  Your child’s completed exam and immunization update needs to be in the nurse’s office by June 20, 2012, in order for your child to be admitted to seventh grade.  Letters are being mailed this week to the parents of students who are not in compliance.  Please be advised, your child will not be allowed to start seventh grade until proof of required immunizations and/or a completed physical examination form is presented to the nurse’s office.

 If your child has a physical exam scheduled in the upcoming months, please notify me.

If you have any questions, contact me at 231-2102.  Thank you.

Congratulations and thank you to Mrs. McClain and our Voices of Bristow for an outstanding job representing our school and community at this morning’s 16th annual celebration of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.’s life and legacy.  In a very real and concrete way, Dr. King’s ideals of diversity, understanding, and compassion are a part of Bristow Middle School, and we continue to work hard each day to live up to these standards.
