BWMS Family Update

Spring Forward and March Madness
BWMS Community,
Yep, everyone's favorite comes this weekend - Spring Forward. Although I am sure that all of us wish we were not losing the extra sleep, we will welcome the extra daylight in the evening.
With March, we are also in the middle of a little dodgeball competition between advisory classes. Ask your student how it is going. Finally, we do have a Teen Night Tonight from 6PM-8PM sponsored by our Student Council. Enjoy the weekend!
~Mr. Josh Frame
