Welcome Back

The first week of school is always a little hectic. Due to some the number changes from last year's master schedule, this year has been a little more hectic. Also, as a result of schedule change requests during week 1, we had to go back and level the number of students in some sections during the second week, which meant some more schedule changes. Ms. Lyons, Ms. Tesch, Ms. Batey, and Ms. Preiss have done a great job of working through these changes and the needs of students! We are now settled in for the first semester.

We have 243 students enrolled this year. The 8th grade is the largest class with 89 students currently.

Parent Participation Needed

If you are interested in serving on the BMS Site Based Committee, please contact BMS or email Mr. Kinney. The site based committee meets to discuss programs, and needs for the campus and will meet at least 2 times during the year. Typically these meetings will start after school (4:00) and should conclude around 4:30 (5:00 at the latest). We need parents, business owners, and community members on the committee, so if you are interested or know someone who is, we'd welcome participation.
