the Year! |

Principal, Boundary County Middle School
It is hard to believe this year is almost over
already. The end of the year marks a busy time
for schools as they prepare to wrap things up
and prepare for next year. BCMS has plenty going
on during the next month so hold on as we get
underway.
 Of
course, it would be impossible for BCMS to do
anything or get our job completed without our
amazing teachers! Last week was Teacher
Appreciation Week as well, so as things are
wrapped up and as we go along our busy lives,
take a moment to thank a teacher or teachers who
have worked hard all year to help students and
BCMS be successful. It is also National Nurses
Week so take a moment to thank them as well.
I would like to take a moment to celebrate our
April Citizen’s of the Month before I get too
far. April was Trustworthiness and those
selected as the most trustworthy were: Illiana
Aitken and Ava Frederickson (6th), Emma Lucas
(7th), Ethan Hubbard (8th), and Kim Norwood
(staff). Congratulations to those selected!
Others deserving congratulations are our Track
Team! They swept second place at their district
final track
meet after a season of hard work. Many athletes
broke school records this year and our future
track teams should be strong and competitive in
the future.
Eighth graders have been submitting their 4-year
plans for high school. Those must be signed and
turned in as part of their Silverwood
eligibility. This helps them plan out the next
four years in order to get the classes they want
during their high school careers. It begins to
get a little more real for our 8th grade
students!
BCMS Cheer program workshops and tryouts are
coming up. Any student wishing to try out for
next years’ Cheer Team must participate in these
events in order to be eligible for next years’
team.
The 8th grade annual trip to Silverwood will
take place on Thursday the 17th. Students will
need to turn in their permission forms as well
as have their 4-year plans completed in order to
go on this fun and bonding trip.
Tuesday the 22nd we will have our annual “Move
Up Day.” From approximately 8-11am, students
from the 5th grade classes will visit BCMS as
our 8th graders visit BFHS. They have a chance
to get familiar with their upcoming surroundings
and learn a little bit about their upcoming
year.
Choir will host a concert on Tuesday the 29th.
Again, make sure you make time to come see the
wonderful work our choir students are doing and
the progress they have made this year.
The Forget Me Not Run/Walk celebrating those
folks we lost but choose to remember will be
happening after school on Thursday, May 31st.
Come join us on a day to reflect at the track.
Reality Town will be Monday, June 4th. 8th
graders will have a chance to “live life” where
they get assigned a job and have to pay bills.
It is always fun and a little sobering to see
just how hard and expensive life is.
BCMS’ Talent Show is scheduled for Tuesday, June
5th. We have amazingly talented students and
they will have this chance to show you their
wonderful skills.
The grand finale will occur on Thursday, June
7th. 7th graders will be participating in their
annual boat races at Snow Creek. 6th graders
will be taking a trip to the Refuge. School will
dismiss at 12:20pm. 8th graders have no classes
or school during the day but will be having
their promotion ceremony and dance beginning at
6:30pm (they will need to be here earlier to get
ready).
BCMS will be getting a floor makeover this
summer. This means our school will be closed and
off limits to all for the duration of the summer
with a few exceptions. Sorry for any
inconvenience but our school will be back better
than ever next year! Due to having to pack up
all materials in each room, if you have any
boxes you would like to hand us they would be
appreciated.
Go Badgers! |
