Wednesday will be Hat day, for a $1 donation students may wear a school appropriate hat to school.
Thursday Mr. Carnes will host a 3 on 3 basketball tournament with a team entry fee of $5. It will be after school until 4:30. Students are welcome to bring money for the volleyball game and stay after to support the ladies and celebrate 8th grade night.
Friday will be our annual UK/UL student/faculty basketball game. Top money raisers have the opportunity to play on their favorite team along with their teachers in a friendly basketball competition. The whole student body will have the opportunity to watch the game at the end of the day. Wear your UK or UofL gear or blue and red to support your team.
Which House is Winning This week? BMS has a house system that is based on students' year of graduation. Each house can earn points based on areas that are linked to the Bruin Way. Points are earned by the percentage of the house on the honor roll, free from referrals, attendance, school spirit, showing responsibility for yourself and others, participation in community service, random acts of kindness, and more!

ALL STAR STUDENTS OF THE WEEK
Keep Being Amazing Bruin Nation!!!
We do our best to keep you informed! BMS News Bytes is our weekly newsletter, favorite this blog and the school website. BMS Class Highlights includes each teacher's snapshot about what's going on in class. The school website has all forms, information, calendar updates and district information you might need. Individual teacher websites are extremely useful to both students and parents. It is important that you log into Parent Portal and choose the option to receive email and texts from the school. Not only can you view your students grades, attendance and other information it is also a great communication tool to keep you connected. Lastly, please follow us on social media including Facebook, Twitter and Instagram. We also have @hentryclaytime on Instagram to keep up with the antics of our school therapy dog. As you can see we want to make every effort to stay connected with families.
Thank you again for providing us the opportunity to serve you and your students.
