BMSS Family Newsletter

Dear Charger Families,

We hope you had a restful break enjoying time with friends and family.

Just a reminder, that if any student was ABSENT and MISSED a semester exam the last week of December, they will need to report to the BMSS Library today beginning at 9am to make up their exam. Thank you parents for your help with this.

On Monday when students return, ALL students will have their schedule reprinted and given to them. There were very minimal changes overall, however, every student will need to pick up their schedule as they did in August when they returned.

6th grade: Cafeteria

7th grade: Gym

8th grade: Courtyard

ID Badges:

Please remind your child to wear their ID everyday to school. This is a BISD expectation. We know they will forget their badge at home from time to time, if that is the case, your child will need to stop by the office to pick up a wristband. If they lost their ID over break, they can pick up a new one in the library for $5.

Best of luck to all of our BMSS students competing in the Kendall County Junior Livestock Show! We have several students showing an animal or a project they have been working on over the past semester.

We will see you on Monday!

Tips to Staying Healthy this Winter

1. Get enough sleep. School aged children should be getting 8-9 hours of sleep a night. A good night's rest can lead to a healthier lifestyle.

2. Staying active. Staying active this winter can help with multiple health aspects of our lives including sleep, energy levels, and metal health.

3. Eating well. Try incorporating at least 2 fruits and 2 vegetables a day. This can be great way to help boost your immune system and health.

4. Watch outdoor temperatures. Playing outdoors is great, but remember to limit it when temperatures begin to drop for the season.

5. WASH, WASH, WASH YOUR HANDS! This is still the best defense against illness. Encourage your children to wash, especially before meals, using soap and warm water. To ensure they are taking enough time to adequately kill germs.
