901 Day owes our bulldogs NOTHING! We had a super busy bulldog day! Our scholars came in showing their Memphis pride in their 901 gear. We had the Bellevue Middle School students read to our scholars (many of them are forever bulldogs who attended Bruce). It was the kickoff of Bulldogs Think Like a Scientist Tuesday. Then the scholars finished the day with Frios pops!
