BWMS Parent Update
9/3/21
Welcoming September!
It was a great week at BWMS.
Our Language Arts and Math teachers all participated in Data Teams this week to review STAR and Assessment marks. We also discuss classroom supports and corresponding interventions that reinforce our vision to Personalize Instruction, Engage Students and Grow Minds.
I hope you have heard great stories at home about your child's school experience. There have been escape rooms, bell ringers, discussion chats, lab experiments, mathematical modeling and many more activities to inspire and guide our students to their maximum potential.
Have a great weekend and Go Eagles!
Sincerely,
Mr. Josh Frame
BWMS recognized for supporting Military-Connected Families
