January 14-January 18 Student Celebrations, Updates and Information

Dear BMS Community,
It has been a fantastic start back to the second semester.  Please read all the upcoming events, we have so many activities coming up for students and families we don't want anyone to miss out.  We want to remind students of the importance of setting goals, working hard and living life with intention.  Please help us continue to support your student in these ways.  Attendance is extremely important to a student's success.  The flu is working it's way through our community and we are emphasizing that students practice healthy habits to avoid getting and spreading the sickness. We are using extra precautions at school so that students can stay healthy.  

MAP testing is coming up and each student is in the process of setting goals for success.  MAP scores are important to each student as the data is used in making decisions for schedules and placement.  Please encourage students to continually do their best. 

What's a Parent To Do? 

We would like to invite you to join Dr. Stuart Eldridge on February 1, 2019 from 6:30-8:00 pm at Bullitt Central High School auditorium for an evening filled with support for parents of middle school aged children.  Please register at www.mercyky.org.
See Attached flyer 

Attendance Matters: 

Be Here! Show Up! It matters! Here in Bruin Nation we are instilling in students the importance of having excellent work ethic.  Part of having excellent work ethic is showing up to "work".  

Stay safe from the flu! Cover your mouth or nose when you cough or sneeze, wash your hands frequently, use hand sanitizer, drink plenty of fluids, get plenty of rest, don't share food or drink.
