Veterans Day Breakfast is Coming!
BWMS Families,
Can you believe that its time to Fall Back this weekend? Everyone enjoys that extra hour of sleep (even with two fog delays in a row) but finding the sky getting dark earlier does take an adjustment. No matter the brightness in the AM or PM, we know that our classrooms will continue to be full or energy and excitement with engaging activities planned each day.
We are excited to welcome our local Veterans to BWMS on Friday 11-11-22. Special thanks to planning committee and many others for their support as they once again help our school honor our local heroes. Please find the details below for the final days to sign up for the 2022 Veterans Day Breakfast.
Enjoy the weekend and Go Eagles,
Mr. Josh Frame
