Sensory Pool Day June 16th hosted by Lexington Regional. See flyer for details. #GoVikings

Please join us as we celebrate some very special members of our Bertrand family! On Friday, May 15th, we will host a Retirement Celebration Open House honoring Scott Schwarz and Shauna Wilken for their years of dedication, service, and impact on Bertrand Community School. Their commitment to our students and community has helped shape generations of Vikings and we are incredibly grateful for all they have given to Bertrand.
The afternoon will also serve as an opportunity to say goodbye to departing staff members and welcome the newest members of our Viking team as they begin their journey at Bertrand.
Parents, friends, former students, and community members are all invited to join us at 2:00 p.m. at the Blue Moose for this open house celebration as we honor the past, celebrate the present, and welcome the future together.
We hope you’ll join us in showing appreciation for these outstanding educators and staff members who have made — and will continue to make — a difference in the lives of our students. #GoVikings #VikingNation

It's Teacher & Staff Appreciation Week at Bertrand! This week, we take a moment to recognize the incredible people who make our school so special: our teachers and staff. They show up with purpose, patience, and heart everyday and go far beyond lesson plans and job descriptions by investing in our students, building relationships, and creating a school culture that feels like family. Whether it’s in the classroom, behind the scenes, or on the sidelines of activities, their impact is felt in countless ways. We are proud of the way our teachers and staff live out what it means to be a Viking: hardworking, committed, and always putting students first. They are shaping not just learners, but leaders, problem-solvers, and good people!
To our teachers and staff: THANK YOU for your dedication, your resilience, and the difference you make each and every day. Our school is stronger because of you and our students are so fortunate to have you on their side!
💙 Honor Tradition. Inspire the Future. 💙
