"Every child deserves a champion: an adult who will never give up on them, who understands the power of connection and insists they become the best they can possibly be.”

– Rita Pierson

 

Welcome to the 2nd and 4th Grade Learning Lab! My name is Cindy Melissa Blood-Bernal—though I am better known to my students as Ms. Melissa. As the Lead Special Education Teacher here at BCES, I am a firm believer in the growth mindset. I know that every child possesses a unique way of learning and the potential to achieve great things, and I am honored to support them on their educational journey. I value open communication and look forward to partnering with you this year. Please feel free to reach out with any questions or concerns!
