The Vision
Berkmar Middle School will provide students with quality, rigorous instruction that will develop critical and creative thinkers who will take ownership of their education in order to be successful lifelong learners.
Principal's Message
Happy Friday!
We have had a great week here at BMS! On Tuesday, we celebrated our STAR Patriots, students nominated by their teachers for displaying our mantra: Be Ready, Be Respectful, and Be Responsible.
Additionally, our students took the GCPS GMAS benchmark in all subject areas. The feedback has been pretty positive, and we are hopeful our students did well.
Over the next few weeks, we will continue to prepare for the spring GMAS assessments. There will be opportunities for you to learn more about your student's progress and to engage in goal setting.
We look forward to partnering with you!
As always, thank you for being Team BMS! We appreciate your support.
Your Proud Principal,
Dr. Kaneshia Dorsan
Please help us reach our goal of 100% Participation on the EES Family Survey!
