Letter of Commendation to Ms. Sheldon and fellow administrators re: 9NEWS interview
Dear Ms. Sheldon,
After watching the recent 9News report regarding police officers being called to area schools to deal with allegedly minor behavioral infractions, the board felt compelled to write a note of commendation to you, and your assistant administrators, for your positive and proactive approach to school discipline.
Your actions are completely consistent with the Bromley East Charter School Mission Statement commission to provide our services to children in a safe environment.
Habitually disruptive or disrespectful students not only distract from the educational experience of other students, they tie up valuable administrative resources, and perhaps significantly endanger their own future academic and lifetime achievement potential. A worst-case extrapolation of such adverse behavior could be construed as compromising the safety of the school environment for other students and faculty. Positively reinforcing respectful and cooperative behavior is consistent with the BECS WAY. However, when a student exhibits a pattern of disrespectful behavior, both parents and administration are faced with the unpleasant but necessary task of sending a strong message that bad behavior will produce unpleasant consequences.
In the 9NEWS segment, the child’s mother asserted that you were cavalierly (and unnecessarily) interfering with her child’s future education and lifetime prospects. This act demonstrates unequivocally that she is not aware of how a more serious offense by her child (which could reasonably be expected to follow if less serious offenses are not corrected in a timely and effective manner) could impact her child’s life far more negatively for a much longer time. This mother’s attitude also ignores the facts that the school did not file a formal complaint, and the responding officers believed the child’s misbehavior rose to a level that demanded an official censure.
The 9NEWS reporter acknowledged that our school calls for police intervention less frequently (nearly half as often) than our district counterparts. That suggests that we are experiencing fewer serious disciplinary problems and/or we are handling them in-house more often. Either way, we are providing our students with a more positive school experience.
Lastly, please know that the Bromley East Charter School Board of Directors fully supports your efforts to appropriately discipline unruly students with compassion when possible, and very directly when necessary.
Respectfully,
Charles R. Elliston
President, Bromley East Charter School Board of Directors
Help us build our playground!

This project cannot be completed without your help. We are looking for volunteers to participate that day. We need help with assembling, building, keeping kids busy, as well as keeping our volunteers fed and hydrated.

A message from Mark Middlebrooks
Students, Staff, and Parents of BECS:
It is with considerable ambivalence that I write this letter to you. In the wake of a weekend of rather extraordinary circumstances, I regretfully have tendered my resignation from Bromley. First and foremost, I want to reassure you that my experience here in Brighton has been extraordinary as well, and I firmly believe that each phase of our life is preparation for the next. Please allow me to tell you a bit about my next chapter.
Very unexpectedly, and quite rapidly, I have been offered a position with a new charter school concept in Parker in which I have the opportunity for a leadership position building a new performing arts program in a facility with some very intriguing dynamics, and though the decision making process has been difficult to say the least, from a logical standpoint, I cannot deny that it is the best choice for my career as an educator.
I have really struggled with letting go of the connections I have made here at Bromley and this has made the decision all the more difficult, but I am also compelled to believe that this will open the door for even greater opportunities for the Bromley Theatre Arts Program, and to that end, I will do my best to continue to work as closely as I can with Ms. Sheldon and the Board to continue the ongoing quality of our initial efforts.
I am genuinely disappointed that there is no way to communicate this decision to you each individually, but please be assured that I am so grateful to each of you for the opportunities provided to me here and I will miss you all.
I apologize for the somewhat late notice and unfortunate timing, but as we speak, the building where I will begin is under construction, and with a leadership role in the development of a large performing arts program, I need to be available as soon as possible.
All the best to each of you as you continue through your own chapters!
Sincerely,
Mark Middlebrooks

Executive Director’s Statement & School District 27J Statement
Dear Parents and Guardians,
As you have most likely heard, there has been a horrific school shooting at Sandy Hook Elementary School in Newtown, Connecticut. This is another sad day for our country, and we send our deepest condolences to the families affected by this tragedy.
We want to take this opportunity to assure you that your children are safe. BECS takes student and employee safety very seriously.
Recent acts of school violence and the resulting intense media coverage bring school safety issues to the forefront for all of us. However, children, in particular, may experience anxiety, fear, and a sense of personal risk. Knowing how to talk with your child about school safety issues could be critical in recognizing and preventing acts of violence, and will play an important role in easing fear and anxieties about their personal safety.
To guide parents through discussions about school violence, the National Mental Health Association offers the following suggestions:
- Encourage children to talk about their concerns and to express their feelings. Some children may be hesitant to initiate such conversation, so you may want to prompt them by asking if they feel safe at school. When talking with younger children remember to talk on their level. For example, they may not understand the term “violence” but can talk to you about being afraid or a classmate who is mean to them.
- Talk honestly about your own feelings regarding school violence. It is important for children to recognize they are not dealing with their fears alone.
- Validate the child’s feelings. Do not minimize a child’s concerns. Let him/her know that serious school violence is not common, which is why these incidents attract so much media attention. Stress that schools are safe places. In fact, recent studies have shown that schools are more secure now than ever before.
- Empower children to take action regarding school safety. Encourage them to report specific incidents (such as bullying, threats or talk of suicide) and to develop problem solving and conflict resolution skills. Encourage older children to actively participate in student-run anti-violence programs.
- Discuss the safety procedures that are in place at your child’s school. Explain why visitors sign in at the principal’s office or certain doors remain locked during the school day. Help your child understand that such precautions are in place to ensure his or her safety and stress the importance of adhering to school rules and policies.
- Create safety plans with your child. Help identify which adults (a friendly secretary, trusted teacher or approachable administrator) your child can talk to if they feel threatened at school. Also ensure that your child knows how to reach you (or another family member or friend) in case of crisis during the school day. Remind your child that they can talk to you anytime they feel threatened.
- Recognize behavior that may indicate your child is concerned about returning to school. Younger children may react to school violence by not wanting to attend school or participate in school-based activities. Teens and adolescents may minimize their concerns outwardly, but may become argumentative, withdrawn, or allow their school performance to decline.
- Keep the dialogue going and make school safety a common topic in family discussions rather than just a response to an immediate crisis. Open dialogue will encourage children to share their concerns.
- Seek help when necessary. If you are worried about a child’s reaction or have ongoing concerns about his/her behavior or emotions, contact a mental health professional at school or at your community mental health center.
You can find more information available online at www.mhacolorado.org.
Please know that Bromley East Charter School is committed to your child’s safety, and that we are here as a resource should you need additional guidance on how to discuss school safety issues with your children.
Sincerely,
Lori Sheldon
Executive Director
Dear 27J families,
It is with a heavy heart and a profound amount of sadness that I write to you to express my condolences to the families of those affected by today’s tragedy at Sandy Hook Elementary School in Newtown, Connecticut. As both an educator and as a parent, words cannot begin to express the grief I feel at this senseless loss of so many lives. I ask that you keep the families of this school and this community in your thoughts and prayers as they deal with this immense tragedy.
I also want you to know that it is our utmost priority to keep our students and safe. While we have encouraged our staff to be vigilant in regards to school safety, as we do every day, we have not received any specific threats to any of our facilities. We will do everything in our power to ensure our schools are a safe place for our children to learn.
Thank you,
Dr. Chris Fiedler
School District 27J Superintendent of Schools
