Mr. Bradtke is Back!

Mr. Bradtke has been out of school for the first month and a half because of his neck injuries that occurred in Ireland over the summer vacation. He required surgery on the first day of school, which was for two discs in his neck, one damaged and the other ruptured. The surgery went successfully and everything is going well for Mr. Bradtke. He was originally planning on coming back to school on Wednesday October 8; however, was having severe pain due to pressured nerves in his neck, and could not make it back until this past Monday October 13. He is very happy to be back at school, one reason being that, “Netflix ran out of quality T.V. shows to watch.”

Mr. Bradtke is mostly looking forward to STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering, and Math) teaching, which the science department is hopefully going to start using this year. Other than the injuries, Mr. Bradtke’s trip to Ireland was unforgettable; he said, “It was very different and very green.” While he was there he walked through Giant’s Causeway, which is like a large, 100 percent crystal cave. Of course Mr. Bradtke has some pictures of Ireland, but sadly there aren’t any recent bird pictures due to his weight restrictions. Stop in to say hello to him if you have not yet and welcome Mr. Bradtke back !
