Message from the Principal
BBE Parents,
My message for this newsletter is a simple thank you and wishes for a safe and restful holiday season! I appreciate our Bear Branch Community and the joy that comes with full hallways and the bustling sounds of learning. When all the parties are done and the holiday cheer is spread, we hope you find time with family fulfilling and a safe return in the New Year. Let me be the first to wish you well in 2026 and we will see you soon!
Thank you for trusting us with your students. Bears LEAD the Way! All the Way! Go Bears!
JSO (Buddy the Principal)
