Week of August 21 (START of SCHOOL!!!)

The +10 Mindset
Welcome to the 2017-2018 school year.  Here is my video message to the BRISD Community.  Thank you parents for entrusting us with your most prized possession, your child.




Our students have been working hard
to support our teachers and community
with the start of school.  We have
the best kids in Texas.
Solar Eclipse on Monday, August 21.
We are ready to start school.  Are you???  This year is going to be the best start of school ever because at 1:10 p.m., there will be a solar eclipse coming over Blue Ridge!

We will be teaching our kids all about how solar eclipses happen, and some classes will do science experiments where they will observe the effects when a solar eclipse occurs.  Additionally, some of our kids will watching the solar eclipse on a live stream from where the eclipse will be complete.  Here is a link for more information, and another link to check out

SPECIAL NOTE - Our kids will not be looking at the solar eclipse without specially ordered safety glasses.  The majority of students will be in classrooms watching the live stream or learning about the eclipse in the classroom.   If you have questions or concerns, please ask you principal.
