FROM THE OFFICE

IMPORTANT NOTES:  

ALL SCHOOL IMPORTANT NOTES:  

    • Reminder:  Place your HOT LUNCH order by Sunday night if you want your child to enjoy a hot lunch on WEDNESDAY.  (Remember, hot lunch will be on Wednesdays this year, not Thursday like last year.)  
    • COMING SOON:  Our Senior class will be hosting a BRADFORD HOUSE T-SHIRT SALE.  Parents will have one week to place an order.  (The sale will come after the new students find out their house assignments.)  There are house competitions, house socials, and other fun opportunities when kids (and parents!) can wear the house t-shirt.  Be on the lookout for more information to come!
    • Medications:  If your child has an inhaler, epipen, or stomach medicine, please send it in to the office in a ziploc bag labeled with their name.  This also applies to any medicine they may need to take on a regular basis during the school day.
    • Morning Carline reminders:
      • At lower school, students should be dropped off in the carline only.  (Exceptions: church or school staff or neighbors who walk to school.)
      • At the upper school, students should remain in the car until 7:30 or when staff are present to greet them.  (Exceptions: staff children.)

LOWER SCHOOL IMPORTANT NOTES:

  • FROM MRS. MITCHELL:  We thank the Lord for the smooth start to the school year, which speaks of the faithfulness of teachers and parents to instill good practices for success.  A couple pro tips for streamlining student routines at home which will become a blessing as the year progresses:  
    • Have the family prep the next day’s lunch after dinner,  then pack lunch boxes/water bottles before breakfast so  you arrive at school on time.  Being late (in line at 7:55 Lower School) hinders the entire class.
    • Establish homework routines: quiet, distraction-free space; remain in uniform until finished, working snack, no complaining/procrastinating allowed, sign off on homework before dismissed to change/play
    • Consider a separate laundry bin & load for each child’s uniforms to save time sorting
    • Save any allowed screen use as a weekend privilege for doing all of the above well

UPPER SCHOOL IMPORTANT NOTES:

  • Athletics Update! Good afternoon! We are excited to announce that there WILL BE an opportunity for 7th-12th-grade students to train and compete in VARSITY Boys & Girls Cross Country this season! Unfortunately, this will NOT be a middle school opportunity because we do not have sufficient coaches to provide training at both, distinct levels. Students in the 7th through 12th-grades who are interested in joining the Cross Country team will practice as a team on Wednesdays and Thursdays from 3–4:15pm. Parents should pick up their children from the Mebane Community Park (627 W Center St. Mebane, NC 27302) at 4:15pm. Students’ backpacks, instruments, bags, etc will be driven to the park, but team members will be expected to be able to run the ~1 mile from the upper campus to the Mebane Community Park as a group warm-up. Runners will be highly encouraged to run 2-3 extra times during the week, but they will have to do that on their own time. Between the end of August and the midpoint of October, we  will plan to compete in 4-6 meets (an individual must complete 4 races to qualify for the state championship meet). The state championship race will be in Charlotte on Friday, October 30th. Nathaniel Johnston and Mandy Crotts will be leading the team at practices and meets. Please email Coach Johnston (nathanieljohnston@bradfordacademy.org) if you want to join the team or have any questions. Practices will begin next Wednesday (8/19).

Our kindergarten scholars had a wonderful first three days! We spent most of our time learning the different rules and routines such as: walking in a line, where students are allowed to play at recess, remembering to raise our hand if we have a question, and many more things. Academically, we introduced our math meeting board, where the students will have the opportunity to review numbers, counting, patterns, the months of the year, the days of the week, and the calendar. We also spent some time coloring, reviewed how to have a good pencil grip, and worked on our school song, Non Nobis.  Praying that it will be a great school year!

In math, the students learned about the calendar, days of the week, months of the year, our numberline, and hundreds chart. We had the opportunity to read a couple fun books to the students in reading. In writing (penmanship), the students practiced the “4Ps” of penmanship while reviewing how to form numbers 0 – 9. In history, they learned about our history timeline and how Jesus changed all of history. The students learned the meaning of  “A.D.” and “B.C.” The kids enjoyed a coloring sheet of Proverbs 1:7 that is kept in their Memory Binder. In grammar, they began learning about nouns and how to sing “This Little Noun.” Ask them to sing it for you!

Each week, students will receive a history card with important information to learn, and we will add a new section to our Creation Song. We also began our Science Journals with Psalm 139:14 and fingerprint art! Throughout the year, we will continue adding to our journals as we study different parts of God’s amazing creation. Mouse Soup has been a fantastic book to kick off our reading journey in second grade! We are so delighted to partner with you as we help your precious children grow in wisdom and virtue. We continue to pray for our students and their families and are looking forward to a wonderful year together!
Table Talk:

This Week

It has been a wonderful start to 4th grade! Our students have been settling in well, reacquainting themselves with familiar routines while learning new procedures and expectations. We’ve also begun introducing parts of our new curriculum, including our history timeline song, while bringing back familiar favorites like the math sound-off.

Mr. Johnston reminded the class that, as the oldest students on the lower campus, they now have the opportunity to be examples for the younger students who are looking up to them. We’ve encouraged them to take this responsibility seriously—using words that build up and encourage, making sure their speech and actions are done in love, and striving to rise above. Through all of this, our goal is to glorify God.

We’re looking forward to a great first full week together!
