CLASS DUES:
The BMS Home and School will be collecting your child's $20 dues during registration. This helps cover the expenses involved in field trips and such throughout the year.
MEDICATION:
The nursing staff will be available to drop off any medication your child may need to have administered during the school day. If possible, we ask that you do so during these registration days to ensure we have everything prepared for the first day of school.

Student performance reports from last year's Missouri Assessment Program (MAP) will be distributed to parents at registration.
YEARBOOKS:
If you ordered a 2018-2019 BMS Yearbook, they will be available for pick-up during registration.
LIBRARY FINES/PAST DUE LUNCH:
If your child had a library fine or lunch owed from the previous school year, please be prepared to pay the balance due or make payment arrangements at the time of registration.

If you plan to come in at a different time than the scheduled registration dates, please email or call the office so they can plan accordingly.

School Supply List
Meet the Teacher Night
Please Note: The Elementary Meet the Teacher Night is going on from 5:30-7:00pm in conjunction with the MS.
Our theme this year is "This is How We Roll". We will be incorporating this as our staff participate in a book study on the Energy Bus by Jon Gordon. Our attention will be focused on positive energy, using that energy to improve daily tasks/goals, and inspiring others to do the same. Be sure to check out the photo props in the foyer as you enter the building this special night. We want to get as many pictures as possible posted to support our theme. The most important part of our building are the students and the families who support them. We want this evening to be the first of one of the many positive days to come.
KIDS - Gifted Parent Meeting
School Dance
Cross Country
Be Alert Presentation
Based on feedback from our BMS parents, we know there is a growing need to educate parents and students on the potential dangers our kiddos face when using social media. In the ever-changing present world we live in, we recognize this is continually changing and it is important for all of us to continue educating ourselves.
In September, we have Russ Tuttle coming to present to our families and students. He is a part of the Stop Trafficking Project. His presentations focus on the role social media plays in exploiting vulnerabilities.
A "caring adult" presentation is being offered for the entire community on Tuesday, September 3rd in the Middle School Gym starting at 6:00pm. Russ and his team will present at an assembly the following day for our students.
Be Alert has two simple goals:
1. Adults - move them from awareness to action
2. Students - educate and empower them to be safe
