Bromwell Bulletin 01/04/24

Posted January 26, 2024

Welcome back and Happy New Year!  Staff is recharged and ready to make 2024 the best for all our Bears.


SchoolChoice Round 1 opens on January 11 and we received some updates about applying for ECE-4 for the 24-25 school year!  The enrollment lottery for ECE-4 families will return to be a part of the DPS SchoolChoice process for our upcoming enrollment cycle starting Jan. 11, 2024. Families will first need to participate in SchoolChoice to match with their preferred DPS school for the 2024-25 school year, then the UPK application will need to be completed by families after Round 1.


Bromwell will be offering Saturday School again! 

It will be offered from 1/27 thru 5/25 this Spring from 9am – 12pm.  Attendance is not required every Saturday, but we do need your child to attend occasionally if you register.  Breakfast and snacks included!  If you have more than one child you’d like to register, please fill out THIS form for each child.


Bromwell will be hosting Discovery Link this summer!  It is fee based that runs from June 10th – August 2nd from 7am to 5:30pm.  Here are the flyers for ECE Summer in the City  and School Age Summer in the City.  Please contact Meghan O’Connor with any questions.
