MISD Secondary Student of the Month
Jesse James III was selected to represent BBIS as the MISD Secondary Student of the Month. According to teachers and staff, Jesse is kind, compassionate, and respectful to everyone. He wears a big smile and greets each person he sees with enthusiasm. When Jesse sets his mind on a goal, he does not allow outside influences to derail him. Jesse is the perfect example of the BBI character traits: Tenacity, Integrity, Kindness, & Compassion.
Congratulations on this recognition and thank you for being the best you can be!
