Our Baby Bruins enjoyed a special attendance reward today for having good attendance! It was the 1st Great Bruin Boo-Off!

The Boo Crew and the Monster Mashers brought their A-Games and each came away with a victory at two separate assemblies. Great job Baby ruins, good attendance is key to our success!
