Bradley Eagles Weekly Update April 13th, 2015 IB Learner Attitude of the Week Curiosity: being inquisitive about the nature of learning and of the world, its people and cultures From Mr. Wera --- On Friday, April 10th, a Denver Public Schools Parent Satisfaction Survey went home in your child’s Friday Folder. If you have more than one child at Bradley, it was sent home with your oldest child. It is very important that we hear from you! The survey only takes a few minutes, and must be completed with a #2 pencil. Please SEAL and return to Bradley or mail in the postage paid envelope provided. A pink half sheet was included with the survey. Please fill out the form with your child’s name and classroom. Classrooms with the highest percentages of returned surveys or signed purple half-sheets (mailed from home) will receive extra recess on Friday, May 1st! Last year, we received over 93% of surveys returned. This year we strive for 100%--yes, 100%!! Please don’t hesitate to contact the main office or Mr. Wera if you have any questions regarding this survey. Thank you for your participation and continued support of Bradley International.
