The first couple months back have been filled with lots of excitement. Staff and alumni greeted students on the first day of school and helped set the tone for a positive and productive year. Each day, students enter the doors ready to take on the day and create a path that will help them achieve their goals . Students have already stepped up as leaders in the community.
On October 22, students participated in a Breast Cancer walk at Cooper River park.
On October 28, the Chowhounds hosted a successful Mobile Vet event. Residents from the city came out to receive free pet food and veterinary services for their beloved pets. Staff came out with their families to support the students.
Hurricane Maria devastated Puerto Rico. Many Camden families, including our own staff, Mrs. Bruno have family affected by the disaster. Staff and students collected relief items for Hurricane Maria victims. Mrs. Bruno traveled to Puerto Rico and the items were delivered to orphanages.

It’s hard to leave the school but of course the baby will come first. Taking time off in the beginning of the year will feel like I have to start over when I come back. I’m going to miss all the kids while I’m gone.
How many years have you been teaching at Brimm?
I started at Brimm in September 2011 and was here until June 2015. I left for
two years and came back September 2017.
What would be your job if you were-n't a teacher?
I would still like to work with students. Either counseling or recreation.
What are your expectations for stu-dents?
Mrs. Abrams: I expect students to be leaders. Even though you are freshman, it is the hardest year of high school because if your GPA drops it is going to be hard to raise that grade. You need to stay focused and not get distracted.
How do you balance school and being pregnant?
How do you feel about your transition from 10th—11th grade?
OB: Regular and comfor table. I like all my classes.
LJ: It was smoother than I thought.
What is your favorite subject?
OB: Art
LJ: Science with Mr. Rivera
What do you think about the cell phone policy?
OB: I agree with it.
LJ: I’m glad they don’t take it at the door but ease up with the in-fractions.
How do you think you did on the PSATs?
LJ: I don’t think its useful.
How do you want to do on the SATs?
LJ: I’ll try my best and do ok.
What are you looking forward to?
LJ: I’m excited for Homecom-ing.
