State of the Den!
Please take a moment to learn about our budget and enrollment plans for 2025/2026, what’s going on at Bromwell, and an update from our PTA.
2025 State of the Den Presentation
Social Emotional Learning – SEL at Bromwell
Hello again everyone Mr. Tay, this week we have started talking about setting goals (big or small) and how to begin to accomplish them. We started yesterday so we have not gotten far yet, but we learned about the staircase strategy. How to turn big challenges/goals into smaller more manageable steps. I have included a video of Monster Mojo and his friend explaining the method, (there’s also two videos before this one if you’d like to take a gander) Talk to y’all next week, and let me know if you have any questions!
Big Challenges – Making a Splash of Big Ideas
School Choice Round 1 Opened January 15th!
The DPS Choice process opens 1/15 and closes on 2/18 with results typically released before Spring Break. If you are a current ECE family, or a family that already has a student at Bromwell looking to enroll a sibling and not in the boundary, you will need to do the school choice application for Bromwell. We do prioritize siblings of existing students, but we do not have control over how the DPS Choice Office algorithm assigns students to school(s) or their waitlist number.
Prior to applying, please make sure your address is correct in your Parent Portal.
If you have additional choice or enrollment questions, you can reach out to Lexie Krohn Parker in the front office, alexis_krohn-parker@dpsk12.net or 720-424-9330.

Ongoing Reminders
Weather Reminders
With the change in weather, please send you children with layers and rain jackets as needed. As snow starts to come, please send snow boots and snow pants. Please make sure to label your students gear so if it ends up in the Lost and Found, we can get it returned to the correct owner. We want our Bears to enjoy outdoor recess as much as possible!
Please remember that any parent/guardian entering the building at any time must always go through the front doors of the school and check in at the office.
Illness Protocol Updates – Norovirus
With so many outbreaks in DPS schools, we are asking to keep your family home for 72 hours to keep our community safe. This includes at least 48 hours after their last episode of vomiting and/or diarrhea. If you have questions or concerns, please reach out to Nurse Brooke and our health office, they can provide additional guidance as needed.
