By Principal David Miles II Boundary County Middle School The school board is hosting a special community discussion about school safety. This will be a community meeting to discuss need of more complete plans concerning school safety. This will take place at BFHS at 5 p.m. Tuesday, November 12. Lockdown drill to occur this month! In light of recent events around the country and to be better prepared for such an event, we will practice a lockdown drill this month. Teachers are going over procedures with students during this first week of November in preparation for the event. We plan to have another similar drill this spring. In order to help communication with parents, we will be trying to collect parent email addresses and phone numbers with texting capabilities. Our hope is to begin using these methods to send out pertinent information to parents including event schedules and emergency information. Thank you for helping us in this monumental endeavor. Our school will also begin to collect information from staff, parents, and students concerning the school climate and future aspirations of our school. Please help us collect this information by completing surveys in the near future. Thank you for your help in providing information. Students in need? We will soon have a collection of hygiene items for those students who are in need of them. The efforts of the Families and Children Coalition will be providing these items via the schools. If you are in need of such items, or know of others who may be, please contact a teacher, principal, or counselor at BCMS to access these items. |
