Today, we gather to pay tribute to an extraordinary figure who has been a fundamental part of our Bracker community for the past three decades, our cherished head custodian, Martin Felix. After 30 years of unwavering dedication and service, we bid a heartfelt farewell to a remarkable man who has not only kept our school clean and welcoming but has also become a beloved part of our lives.
As he transitions into this new chapter of his life, we want Martin to know how deeply he will be missed. His generosity, kindness, and work ethic have left an indelible mark on our hearts, and his absence shall be felt profoundly amongst students and staff alike.
We wish Martin all the best in his retirement, may it be filled with joyful adventures, new experiences, and the relaxation he so richly deserves. Thank you Martin for everything!!! You will always be part of the Bracker Family!!!
Hoy nos reunimos para rendir homenaje a una figura extraordinaria que ha sido una parte fundamental de nuestra comunidad Bracker durante las últimas tres décadas: nuestro querido custodio principal, Martin Felix. Después de 30 años de dedicación y servicio inquebrantables, nos despedimos de todo corazón de un hombre extraordinario que no solo ha mantenido nuestra escuela limpia y acogedora, sino que también se ha convertido en una parte querida de nuestras vidas.
A medida que avanza hacia este nuevo capítulo de su vida, queremos que Martin sepa cuánto lo extrañaremos. Su generosidad, amabilidad y ética de trabajo han dejado una marca indeleble en nuestros corazones, y su ausencia se sentirá profundamente entre los estudiantes y el personal por igual.
Le deseamos a Martin todo lo mejor en su jubilación, que esté llena de alegres aventuras, nuevas experiencias y la relajación que tanto merece. Gracias Martín por todo!!! ¡Siempre serás parte de la Familia Bracker!

September 2024 Calendar and Menu



Good afternoon Bracker families,
I hope this message finds you well and that your child is now engaging in all Bracker has to offer. A quick reminder that drop-off in the morning is 7:00 a.m. daily at the earliest. We do not have staff here prior to that to supervise your child. Please pick up your child daily on time.

Hello Bracker families,
This is a quick reminder that there will not be school this Monday,, September 2nd 2024 for the national holiday known as Labor Day..
Thank you,
Mr. Payne
Hola familias de Bracker,
Este es un recordatorio rápido de que no habrá clases este lunes 2 de septiembre de 2024 por el feriado nacional conocido como Día del Trabajo.
Gracias, Senor Payne

Good morning Bracker parents,
This is an update regarding our efforts to alleviate traffic. Please feel free to park in the front parking lot during drop off and pick-up in order to facilitate a faster drop-off and dismissal. We kindly ask for you to get down from your vehicle and walk to the cafeteria door to have your child brought out. Please do not walk through the drive and only cross in the designated cross walk.
Thank you for your understanding.

Good afternoon Bracker parents,
today during pick-up we are changing the pick-up procedures to allow parents to park in the dirt lot towards the front gates of the school, and get down from their vehicle to walk and pick-up your child at the cafeteria. When walking to and from the dirt lot please use the sidewalk fence side and staff will guide you back to your vehicle. This will hopefully alleviate traffic. Please do not wait to pick-up Desert Shadows anywhere at Bracker as that is not allowed, and Desert Shadows students need to be picked up at Desert Shadows.
Thank you,
Mr. Payne

Good afternoon,
Please be aware that all parents must pick-up their child through drive in front of Bracker. Please so not pick-up any other students that do not go to Bracker, such as Deserts Shadows in the Bracker parking lot or in front of the school. All Desert Shadows students need to be picked at Desert Shadows.
Thank you,
Mr. Payne

Good afternoon Bracker families,
We hope your child enjoyed the first day of school. Special thanks to the Bimbo crew for starting the year off right with a treat, and a backpack. Please pick your child up using the drive in front of the school only. Any appointments where you need to check out your child early we kindly request you do so by calling the office and coming before 2:15 P.M. Any later than that we can not forego the pick up line in the main drive. This is to make it fair for all Bracker families as well as expediate a safe process for dismissal. We will begin releasing students at 2:35 through next week in order to alleviate the long lines. Please be patient and thank you for all your support!. Welcome to a new and exciting school year.
Mr. Payne
