Help us give a big Tiger welcome to Sarah Herman, who is stepping into a new role as a High School Special Education Teacher! After spending four years supporting high schoolers as a paraprofessional, Sarah is excited to lead her own classroom. She believes strong relationships and open communication are key to student success. Most of all, she wants every student who steps into her room to know they are important, heard, and seen. We are so glad to have her energy back in our high school halls this year!

Behind our record-breaking AP season are individual stories of focus and determination. Out of the 81 students who pushed their boundaries this year, 56 earned college credit on at least one exam.
Special recognition goes to the seven Tigers who took multiple AP exams and earned credit on every single one. Five students went two-for-two, and two students went three-for-three!
Whether taking one exam or balancing three, these students showed what happens when preparation meets opportunity. We love seeing our Tigers succeed at the highest levels. #tiGRRpride

BRFHS Tigers shattered records on their 2026 Advanced Placement (AP) exams! This year, 81 students challenged themselves by taking 101 total exams.
Not only did we see our highest participation numbers ever, but our students also earned college credit at historic rates. An impressive 70.4% of our testing students earned credit on at least one exam by scoring a 3, 4, or 5. Even more exciting? This marks our first year hitting double-digit "5" scores, with 10 exams reaching the highest score possible.
Taking on college-level work in high school requires incredible dedication. Congratulations to our students and the teachers who supported them! #tiGRRpride

We are five weeks out from the first day of school! This week, we want to give a special shout-out to our youngest learners in Pre-K and Kindergarten.
Starting school is a big milestone, and building the habit of regular attendance right now sets the foundation for your child's entire educational journey. Did you know that missing just two days a month in kindergarten can make it harder to learn to read later on?
Here are a few gentle things you can do this month to prepare:
⏰ Gradually adjust bedtimes: Start moving bedtimes up by 10 minutes each week so the first morning isn't a shock to the system.
⏰ Talk it up: Keep conversations about school positive and exciting to ease any transition anxiety.
⏰ Map out appointments: Try to schedule routine check-ups during summer days or after school hours whenever possible.
Want to learn more? Here’s a great resource! https://www.attendanceworks.org/wp-content/uploads/2019/06/K_1st_Handout_012925.pdf
We can’t wait to see those big smiles on day one! #tiGRRpride #attendancematters
Just two days into rehearsals for Beetlejuice, Jr., our middle and high school students are already bringing high energy to the stage. Between line readings and choreography, these talented Tigers spent the week problem-solving, building sets, and sharing plenty of laughs together. Providing creative opportunities like theater during the summer gives our older students a space to try new things, sharpen their skills, and collaborate across grade levels.
Mark your calendars! You can catch their performance on July 31st. Stay tuned for showtime details! #tiGRRpride

From Times Square to Ellis Island to the Top of the Rock Observatory, many memories were made on the 2026 Band/Choir NYC Trip! #tiGRRpride

Balancing late-night practices, away games, and rigorous schoolwork takes immense discipline, but our student-athletes put in the work every day. Our 2025-2026 Varsity Volleyball team earned the Wisconsin Volleyball Coaches Association (WVCA) All-Academic Team Award!
To qualify, a varsity TEAM must maintain a cumulative GPA of 3.400 or higher for the entire school year. BRFHS volleyball surpassed that standard by achieving an impressive 3.58 team GPA. It isn't easy to excel in a competitive sport while keeping academics a top priority, but these players show what true dedication looks like.
