Principal Lubben's Greetings
We are almost halfway through second quarter and mid-term is coming up on December 13th. If possible, please take a moment to check the portal with your son or daughter. It is a powerful technology tool, and can initiate some great conversations. Mondays and Thursdays in Prime Time are reserved for academic support, so your son or daughter will be having similar conversations with his or her prime time teacher.
We have worked very hard on continuing to improve our parent communication. We want to form a true partnership with parents in order to better serve your child. We have made more positive phone calls home, updated our web pages, made more conference calls with parents and students during discipline events, and increased our presence on Twitter and Facebook. Please call me if you have ways in which you feel we can improve our school communication.
I know it is hard to believe, but we will be starting our registration process for next year
following winter break. Please see the bottom this newsletter for more information on upcoming dates concerning your child’s school programming for next year.
Thanks for sharing your child with us!

Current BCMS 6th and 7th grade students and their families are invited to travel to Washington DC in June 2019. This 4 day all-inclusive trip (including airfare) will give our BCMS students the opportunity to explore many sites in Washington DC that relate directly to our BCMS English, social studies and science curriculum.

9th Grade resgistration is right around the corner!
Dear 8th grade parents,
This is the start of an exciting time for you and your 8th grade student. As the time winds down on their middle school experience, it is time to begin looking towards high school. 8th grade students will be registering for high school in a few weeks. On Friday, January 5th the Buffalo High School Counselors will visit the 8th grade geography classes to discuss high school registration and pass out valuable information. Please take time to talk to your 8th grade son or daughter about the information they will receive.
Additionally, there will be an important Parent Registration Night in the Performing Arts Center at the High School on Tuesday, January 9th at 7pm. Please mark your calendars.
If you have any questions regarding this process, please call.
