Principal's Message
Greeting families,
Welcome back. I hope you had a chance to spend time with your children this past week.
Next Saturday, the district will host a Fam Jam event, and Biomedical Preparatory will have a table there. We hope to see you, and that you can enjoy the activities the district is putting together.
There have been questions regarding April 10th, one of the inclement weather days. According to the district master calendar, students will not have to make up this date, which means there will not be classes as it was initially planned. If something changes, I will inform you immediately.
I have not received any notifications about movement on the waiting list, but School Mint is the best resource for tracking your placement. So if there are any changes, you should be able to see them there.
The surveys below are still open. Even though we have plenty of responses, the goal is to hear 100% of your voices. Your feedback is crucial to enhance everyone's experiences in year two.

There is also time to complete the district survey if needed. I will update you on completion rates once the central offices send me updates. Please, contact me directly if we need to improve in any areas. Your feedback is valuable, and we appreciate all ideas for improvement.
Notice that you may receive a call from the district asking you to complete the survey via phone.
Second Survey: District Wide Parent Survey
Your child's teacher may assist if you need the ID number.
If you have questions or comments, please do not hesitate and ask.
Thanks for choosing us!
Kind Regards,
Roberto Gonzalez

Playground Update
Estimated begin date: I have not received any other news. I will follow up again tomorrow.
The playground completion date I was given is April 2023. Dallas ISD and donors gave more funds to add shade as the trees were cut down.
Some parents expressed concerns regarding the mulch and how it may damage the eyes. As a result, Dallas ISD will put concrete in that area and cover it with kids' friendly material for added safety.
The playground will have stand-alone equipment due to the size of the space and playground equipment space regulations.
The total cost is over $100,000. I will get the final price once it is available.

Digital Library Resources
We want to share these digital resources with you. Unfortunately, we have yet to get access to some resources as we do not have a librarian, but I am working on it. Please email me if you need help with any resources.

Note: Your child's teacher can provide a district ID number.
Social and Emotional Learning (S.E.L)
We are proud to be a campus that works in Social and Emotional practices with our students. Social and Emotional Learning (SEL) builds the skills, knowledge, and attitudes that both students and adults need to be successful in school, work, and life. They include things such as knowing and controlling your emotions, teamwork, understanding others, making positive choices, and resilience.
There are four signature practices that the school follows:
