Dear Bernheim Community,
This week is National Teacher Appreciation Week. We want to take a minute to celebrate the talent and dedication of each of BMS's teachers. BMS teachers are truly committed to serving the community and students of BMS. Several were students of BMS themselves while others landed here and never looked back. Thank you to everyone who serves the students and families of BMS.
. Mark your calendar as this will be a time for you and your student to discuss and look at their progress and work this year. Advisory teachers will be available to share insights, answer questions and check in with you and your student. In the past we have had a meal together, due to Covid 19 that can't happen as such, however we are having Chic-fil-a Grab and Go meals for all who come. BCA families this is for you as well. This will be an in person event for you and your student. Please note only one parent/guardian is able to come with students due to Covid 19 restrictions. The sign up form is LINKED HERE! Please contact your student's advisory teacher if you have questions.Check out dates under "Mark your Calendar", there are several important dates especially for our 8th graders. Promotion will be in person at BCHS on the evening of June 2 @ 6:00 pm. Each student will receive 4 guest invitations only. Of course, masks are mandatory. The event will be recorded and posted to BMS Website and Social Media. BCA families this event includes your students as well. If you aren't comfortable allowing your student to participate, certificates will be mailed. As a side note, if your student will require summer school in order to be promoted they obviously will not be able to participate in the promotion ceremony. Please contact your students advisory teacher with questions.

It is important for ALL BCA students to attend each zoom lesson and complete all learning tasks in google classroom. BCA teachers are available and want to connect with you and your student. BCA students also have ESS, Wonderful Wednesday, and will be working with Recovery Coach, Heather Davis. BCA teachers want to provide students any and all opportunity to be successful. The school day is from 8:00am -3:00pm every day. Please have your student up and on their Zoom classes.

REMINDER:
ATTENDANCE:
Students do need to be here, if they are not here it is an absence. Students need to be in their classroom by 8:00 am, or they are considered tardy. This is the same as it has been in years past. The school day begins at 8:00 am, please make sure students are up and going if they are in the BCA. Wednesday is the only Remote day for all students and they have class work ALL DAY. They are to be up and on their advisory zoom at 8:00 am. It is a school day, it counts!
