This week at BMS has been full of hard work and positivity! Students are putting in great effort to succeed while also showing kindness and gratitude toward one another. They're making the most of the new spaces on campus, adding to the excitement and energy of the week. Keep up the great work, BMS!
TEACHER OF THE YEAR
COUNSELOR’S CORNER
Celebrating Gratitude at School
This week, our students got into the spirit of gratitude by writing "Gratitude Grams" for their classmates, teachers, and staff. It’s amazing how a simple “thank you” or kind word can brighten someone’s day! Gratitude is such an important skill—it helps us focus on the good around us and strengthens our relationships. Ask your child about the Gratitude Grams they wrote or received, and maybe take a moment to share something you’re all thankful for as a family. Let’s keep the gratitude going!
If you have any questions or need counseling support, please feel free to email amy.bush@bullitt.kyschools.us.
