BWMS Family Update

We are excited to welcome our local Veterans to BWMS next Friday 11-15-24. Special thanks to planning committee and many others for their support as they once again help our school honor our local heroes. We look forward to honoring our local heroes starting at 8:15 AM next Friday.

Also, we wanted to send out a quick reminder that our Eagles Night time for Today was adjusted to 2:30-4:30 due to the home playoff football game. Students will be available for pick up based on the parking directions below.

Enjoy the weekend & Go Eagles,

Mr. Josh Frame

BWLS is proud to partner with Delaware County this year in the "Hunger Games" initiative. The initiative aims to ensure our local Delaware County families can access a free Thanksgiving meal.

Each building in the district will be responsible for collecting items to contribute to the Thanksgiving Meal Kits. BWMS will be responsible for collecting stuffing mix with the goal of collecting 200 boxes. In return, we can help provide a limited quantity of Thanksgiving kits to BW families in need. Collection bins will be in the office by the end of the week. The food drive will take place from November 4th to November 15th.

A special thank you to BWHS Principal Nicole Carter, BWHS counseling office, Megan Truax, and Deputy Snyder for making this happen in our district.
