March 25-March 29, Information, Updates and Student Celebrations

Dear BMS Community,

What a great week we have had here in Bruin Nation.  We started the week with the PTSA Connect night that went very well.  Thank you to all of you who came out to join us!  On Thursday we had our Cubs girls BeYOUtiful conference which was designed to help young girls navigate life in a 'snapchat, instagram' kind of world.  It is tough to be an 11 year old girl in 2019 and we want to support them in every way possible.  

The BMS band worked very hard and participated in the Central area concert on Thursday night and while our musicians were playing their instruments our athletes were running in the track meet! Some of those talented students actually did both!! We are so proud of BMS students and teachers, we have an outstanding school community, they work extremely hard in so many different arenas! Way to BE BOLD BRUINS! 

Speaking of being bold, we had our Friday House competition and the Cubs took the win for sure this week.  the Grizzlies weren't too far behind but the Cubs rocked the spirit and the competition! Way to go Cubs.
