Bruin Pride in Action! 🐾
We are incredibly proud to recognize Bernheim Middle School for their outstanding efforts during this season of giving. Led by the student leadership group, the BMS CEOs, the Bruins set an ambitious goal to collect 5,000 nonperishable food items for the Turnaround Resource Center.
Not only did they meet that goal, they proved what’s possible when a community leads with heart! Over the last several weeks, students took charge by:
📢 Spreading awareness and motivating their peers.
🎨 Creating visual reminders throughout the halls to inspire giving.
🤝 Fostering a true spirit of service within the building.
Their commitment to supporting our local community is a shining example of leadership. Thank you to the students and "staffulty" at Bernheim for bringing so much heart to everything you do!

Through these kind donations, the school provided each student with a Candyland game, a book, and a candy cane, perfectly complementing their Candyland theme. 🍬 The highlight of the day was a visit from Santa, who personally delivered the gifts to the classrooms.🎁
We are honored to serve a community that cares so deeply for its students. Thank you for making this "special day" a reality!

He gives credit to his team, steps in wherever needed, and builds meaningful relationships with students, staff, families, and even the courts. Mr. Smallwood leads with vision, heart, and respect, and BCPS is better because of him.
