Dear Bernheim Community,
Congratulations to the BMS students who were accepted into the Bullitt Advanced Math and Science Center. (BAMS) We are so proud of BMS students and cannot wait to see what they do in this world! Congratulations to all the 8th Grade Students on their promotion. They have made it through a historic event and we know they will do great things in their futures. Thank you to all the BCA families and Teachers for sticking with it this year and for supporting the learning process for your students. We look forward to having most of our students "back in the house" next year!
Keep reading regarding upcoming events for next week and things you need to know. One of those items is, of course, make sure students are in dress code and following the Bruin Way on these last few days. We want the end of the year to be great and for everyone to finish strong!
CELEBRATING THE CLASS OF 2021
Once a Bruin Always a Bruin! Thank you to BCHS for allowing former Bruins to walk the halls of BMS and express gratitude to past teachers while inspiring students to look forward to their future. BCPS is a learning community that cares for students at each step of the way. From kindergarten to their senior year, students are encouraged and supported to grow and become difference makers for their community. Thank you to all the graduates for growing in the "good stuff". Good Luck, Best Wishes, we know you will do great things.
Congratulations on Retirement
We don't know what we are going to do without Ms. Kathy Harris and Ms. Connie McDaniel. These two beautiful ladies have served BMS tirelessly over the last two decades between them there is 30+ years of service to our community. Both of these ladies smile and have a kind word for everyone. We love them dearly and they will be greatly missed.

Ms. Kathy Harris has also been with Bernheim Middle School since 2005. She is a Night Sweeper and always goes over and above the call of duty. She shares the love for people in all she does. She works with a smile and always speaks kindness into the world around her. We will miss her greatly and hope that she will enjoy her gardening and spending time with family.
We will be posting pictures and celebrations on Facebook during the next week. Please know this is the last official communication for the school year. We will start posting news about 2021-2022 in July and we thank you for following BMS Newsbytes and keeping up to date with the happenings at BMS.
SUMMER LEARNING
calls and USPS letters. If your student is invited/notified please do make every effort to get them here. We know 2020-2021 will be a year for the history books and we want to do all we can to support students. In the event your student does not get a letter or notification of the summer Math and Reading program but you would like your student to attend please call the school at (502)869-4000 and ask for Ms. Tabby. We can add their name to a waiting list and add them if room becomes available.
There are additional Summer Learning Opportunities in the afternoons. BCPS has posted the SUMMER UNLIMITED LEARNING opportunities on their website. We have also linked it here. These are great opportunities for students outside of academic content. Students who are coming to morning sessions will also be able to attend afternoon sessions! Check here for details!
CHROMEBOOKS
In person 8th grade students turned their Chromebooks in on May 28th. BMS BCA students may bring their Chromebooks to school from June 4 between 8:00am and 3:00 pm or June 7th - June 10th from 8:00am-12:00pm. The old Chromebook must be collected so students can receive a new one in the fall at BCHS.

LAST DAY OF SCHOOL- JUNE 3
The last day of school is a school day. We have had several ask if students must attend, the answer is it is a school day. The last day of school we will be holding the BMS End of Year Rennasiaince Rally celebrating and rewarding students hard work. If your student is a Gold, Silver or Bronze card recipient there will be extra fun for them throughout the day. Kona Ice will be available for students who are participating so they may need a little extra money that day. Students who aren't eligible will be working on missing assignments and catching up before summer. All students will be able to watch and be part of the end of day rally. Students participating in the rally will be able to wear hats, sunglasses, dress code shorts and t-shirts, sunscreen and of course they need a mask. BMS BCA Ren Rally eligible students are invited to the Rennasiaince Rally but must have received notice of invitation and their parent must have completed the google form Permission slip/RSVP that will be sent out on June 1st. An information letter was sent through Infinite Campus on May 27th. Students are in no way required to come if they are eligible they are simply invited. BMS BCA teachers will have assignments/activities posted on June 3rd for all students in BCA who are either ineligible or simply don't wish to attend.
YOU MUST REGISTER YOUR CHILD EACH YEAR ONLINE.
Contact Ms. Stephanie Dillman with questions.
