Welcome to Mrs. Bruna's Page

Chad, Theresa, Shelby, Tasha & Kara

As an educator, I strive to create positive, inspiring and safe environments that foster sharing, learning and growth. Most importantly, I respect each child’s uniqueness, and make every effort to create educational experiences that ensure success for every student. Thank you for the opportunity to work with your child(ren).

Little eyes see a lot. Each of us (parent, grandparent, aunt, uncle, teacher or friend) influence the life of a child. How will you touch the life of someone today? The following message is intended for all of the people who do so much for others and think no one ever sees.

WHEN YOU THOUGHT I WASN’T LOOKING

When you thought I wasn’t looking, I saw you hang my first painting on the refrigerator, and I immediately wanted to paint another one.

When you thought I wasn’t looking, I saw you feed a stray cat, and I learned that it was good to be kind to animals.

When you thought I wasn’t looking, I saw you make my favorite cake for me and I learned that the little things can be the special things in life.

When you thought I wasn’t looking, I saw you make a meal and take it to a friend who was sick, and I learned that all have to help take care of each other.

When you thought I wasn’t looking, I saw you give of your time and money to help people who had nothing and I learned that those who have something should give to those who don't.

When you thought I wasn’t looking, I saw you take care of your house and everyone in it and I learned we have to take care of what we are given.

When you thought I wasn’t looking, I saw how you handled responsibilities, even when you didn't feel good and I learned that I would have to be responsible when I grow up.

When you thought I wasn’t looking, I saw tears come from your eyes and I learned that sometimes things hurt, but it's all right to cry.

When you thought I wasn't looking, I saw that you cared and I wanted to be everything that I could be.

When you thought I wasn't looking, I learned most of life's lessons that I need to know in order to be a good and productive person when I grow up.
When you thought I wasn't looking, I looked at you and wanted to say, "Thanks for all the things I saw when you thought I wasn't looking!"
