Principal's Message
It has been a full 4-day week here at BMS. As a school, we continue to have so much to celebrate.
- We continue to celebrate our diversity with Black History Month. Staff and students participated in door decorating contests and spirit week!
- Our Remezcla Program attended a field trip to Georgia Tech and met the President and Dean!
- Our boys and girls soccer teams remain in the number 1 spot!
Additionally, we had a great start to our Spring into Proficiency initiative, an effort to provide our students with effective goal setting and test-taking strategies Testing season will soon be upon us; I look forward to celebrating our success.
As always, thank you for being Team BMS! We appreciate your support.
