#ReadersAreLeaders (The 5) WIN!
WIN time Works!
We are about to launch our READ To ME project.
Every scholar in our building will be brining home a book to keep!
6th and 7th grade will be reading "A Long Way Home From Chicago" and 8th grade will be reading the same book and additional book. Stay tuned for information!
We are excited about his project and hope you will read along with us. Parents who would like a book, please contact the front office and we will make that happen!
Notes from Ms. Raeburn
Please take the time to take the Georgia school survey by clicking the link above. Your feedback matters and it counts as we work to improve outcomes for our scholars and make our schoolhouse ELITE!
GMAS testing time is right around the corner. We know our scholars are more than just a test, but we also want to support them to do their very best! Beginning this month, we will include lots of tips and strategies as we dive into the testing season! We will be spending some time at school in the next few weeks making sure we can master taking the test online as well as working to improve our literacy goals!
I am so proud of our schoolhouse and our scholars and what they have done in the last two years to be a voice, lead positive change, and make our school truly an ELITE place to be!

The peeks of the week are listed under our "weekly updates" tab on our website. We hope you are finding this information helpful in keeping up with the day to day of your child and what they are doing at school.
Other #BeBCMS Nuggets:
E+R=O
I hope you have noticed the posters and visual reminders around our school. E+R=O is a simple skill. The E stands for the event (what happened), the R stands for how you responded (your action) and the O stands for the Outcome (what did you get). We are helping our scholars to think about E+R=O in every situation. Our goal is to help our scholars begin to see and understand that the better their R is, the better their O will be!
PLEASE sign up to use Powerschool. PowerSchool is our grading and information communication system. Sign up is EASY! Stop by the front office and we will get you signed up and get you a login.
