Principal Update
🎉 Hey BRMES Families! 🎉
I'm absolutely thrilled to welcome you back to a brand new school year! 📚✨ This year’s theme is all about "Fun & Games!" 🎲🎉
This monthly family newsletter will be your go-to source for all the latest updates and info. We've got a shiny new texting, email, and calling system, so bear with us as we iron out the kinks—we’ll soon be bringing you more frequent updates from both the school and your child's classroom. 📱📧📞 Be sure you opted IN to get our messages (see image below). Thank you for completing the online signed Medical Consent form and the demographic updates!
Parent teacher conferences at BRMES will be a bit different this year. We are spreading out parent teacher conferences to 6 different nights. Watch for a sign up in your email soon. We are offering two options this month! They are never required; but we'd love to see everyone schedule at least one conference sometime this school year with whomever you'd like to meet with.
Let me introduce our fabulous new 2024-25 office team! 🥳 Miss Leigh, Miss Jess, Mrs. Borg, and our wonderful high school student aides will be here to help answer your calls, send messages to your kids, and keep our school safe by monitoring visitors and volunteers. 🛡️📞📝

School Safety Review
All school doors to the school remain locked during classroom learning hours. All visitors and pre-scheduled volunteers must be identified at the doors and scan your drivers license for admittance.
We continue to practice the below four emergency protocols from the Idaho Standard Command Responses for Schools (ISCRS) on a regular basis.
Breakfast & Lunch
You are encouraged to pay for your child's breakfast or lunch through My School Bucks.com. Call our office if you need your child's Student ID number. You can even set it to notify you when your child's account balance is low. A check written to MDSD Food Service can also be accepted if your child can deliver it to the office or cafeteria.
Please consider completing a free/reduced application as well. Fill out and print an application in English or Spanish here (under forms) or stop by the office to pick up an application.
September school lunch menu can be found here.

Tortoise & the Hare (Fundraiser) ~ Thursday, Sept. 19
Students will be walking laps at Sabala Field on the Payette Lakes Middle School grounds on Thursday, September 19th. This is our one and only fundraiser for our PTA. Students will have 30 minutes to walk or run laps and earn a bracelet for each lap he/she completes. Students ask for donations from family or close friends to encourage them to run/walk many laps within their 30 minute time block. We are excited to see what our kids can do! Our BRMES families are invited to come watch or to volunteer. Here is the volunteer sign up and grade level times.
- 1st grade: 10:15-10:45
