Brilliance Bears News

Thank you for another amazing week! There is even more excitement to come!

We have officially partnered with First Federal Lakewood Bank to bring financial literacy classes to our 3rd–5th grade scholars! Scholars will participate in classes every other week and have opportunities to open bank accounts and deposit money. We are excited to help our scholars learn about saving and managing money at an early age!

Our attendance is also trending upward! Thank you to every family working hard to ensure scholars are here every day and on time. Your commitment makes a difference!

A few important reminders:

• Parent–Teacher Conferences are Monday, October 12. Please arrive at your designated appointment time so we can have a meaningful conversation about your scholar’s progress. There is no school for students on Monday. Classes resume Tuesday, October 13.

• Picture Day is coming up! Scholars must wear their school uniforms to take fall pictures. Dress-down options will be available for spring pictures. Our goal is to capture a photo of every scholar!

• Our 1000 Ties event is Friday, October 16, for our 5th–8th grade boys! We look forward to this special opportunity for our young men.

• Fall Festival is October 29, 2026

Thank you for your continued partnership and another wonderful week. Enjoy your long weekend!

Parent–Teacher Conferences on Monday, October 12, are by appointment only. Please check your email or messages for your scheduled time.

Please arrive on time so you can have a meaningful conversation about your scholar’s progress. Arriving late will shorten your conference time.

If you need to reschedule, please call the main office and leave your name, your scholar’s name, and your phone number. Your scholar’s teacher will contact you on Tuesday to arrange another time.

We cannot accommodate walk-ins, time changes, or rescheduling on the day of conferences.

Thank you for all you do and for partnering with us to support your scholar’s success!
