Bransford second graders loved reading children’s books by award-winning and best-selling author Susan Steven Crummel and when they found out that she lived in the DFW area, they immediately said, “field trip!” Instead, the author came to the campus on Friday thanks to a collaboration with the school’s PTA and did presentations for all grade levels.

It's Educational Diagnostician Week! We want to take a moment to extend our heartfelt appreciation to our incredible educational diagnosticians. Your dedication to identifying student needs and ensuring every learner thrives does not go unnoticed. Thank you for all you do!
