Brocton CSD Families,
We wanted to let you know about the Mock Crash presentation that is scheduled for today, May 27th, beginning around 12:20 p.m. for students in grades 10-12.
The event is designed to educate students about the dangers and consequences of impaired driving and other destructive decisions. The presentation involves law enforcement, EMS, and fire department personnel, along with student participants.
The activity involves a presentation from law enforcement, a staged mock crash scene, emergency response demonstrations, a presentation depicting the aftermath, and consequences of impaired driving.
The demonstration is intended to be realistic and impactful. We understand that some students may find the content emotionally difficult due to themes involving impaired driving, injury, and death. If families would prefer their child not participate, they may contact the MS/HS office.
Additionally, we will have social workers and counselors available for students' support.
Community residents will note an increased presence of emergency vehicles and sirens on campus during the afternoon as part of the demonstration.
Thank you for your support in this impactful presentation.

🎉 Attendance Matters… and so does having FUN! 🎉
On May 15, we held our very first Attendance Pop-Up PBIS Reward Day, and our students had an amazing time! Students with positive attendance were invited to join us for an afternoon filled with games, laughter, music, and freeze pops! 🍧🎲🎯
Although the weather had other plans and we had to move the fun indoors instead of the playground, our students still brought the energy and excitement to the cafeteria and game stations! The smiles, teamwork, and excitement throughout the afternoon showed just how important it is to celebrate our students for showing up and being ready to learn every day. 💙💛
Attendance is a key part of student success, and we are proud to recognize and reward students who make school a priority. We can’t wait for our next Attendance Pop-Up in June — it’s going to be even BIGGER and even MORE fun! 👏✨
Keep showing up, Bulldogs… you never know when the next surprise reward might pop up! 🐾

Ms. Kaltenbach and Mrs. Trippi demonstrate an unwavering commitment to enhancing communication and language skills and nurturing a positive learning environment for all our students.

This week during Between the Bells Week, our students took part in a special “Mindful Minute” activity during lunch periods led by Deputy Rosario’s student intern, Adrian Frame, Ms. Nickerson and Ms. Zambotti💛
Students were asked:
“What would you say to a peer who chose the same cat as you today?”
What started as a simple prompt quickly turned into a wall full of encouragement, kindness, humor, and support. From “Be kind to yourself” to “You matter” and “Have a good day,” our students reminded us just how powerful words can be.
In the middle of busy school days, taking even one mindful minute to connect, reflect, and uplift each other can make a difference.
We are incredibly proud of the positivity and compassion our students showed throughout this activity.
