Report cards were sent home Monday, November 14,
to all parents who were unable to attend parent
teacher conferences.

BCMS students
count out 15,174 pennies collected in
the Penny War fundraiser. |
Our Penny War fundraiser was a fantastic
success! Through the efforts of our students and
the competitive nature of our school, we were
able to raise $1,517.40 to donate to local
organizations.
The money was split and checks given to the
local Legion and VFW chapters.
BCMS celebrated Veteran’s Day a day early by
hosting local veterans and treating them to a
celebration of their service. Students and staff
welcomed our veterans while sharing a message
dedicated to thanking veterans for their
sacrifice. A huge thank you to the community
volunteers who helped put this together as well
as the many students who worked to make this
event successful. Most of all, thank you to the
veterans who have served our country!
Debate class has been debating their topics.
Students are doing a fantastic job gathering
resources and evidence to support their claim
and learning how to find faults in others’
arguments. Great job students.
We met our goal for the Book Fair! We sold
$2240.22 worth of merchandise which means Mr.
Miles will soon allow some lucky person to throw
a pie in his face. Great job staff and students
of encouraging reading and getting involved with
the various Book Fair activities.

A team of
debaters gets ready for a round at the
podium. |
BCMS will have our lockdown drill this month.
This is to help prepare our students and staff
to deal with worst case scenarios. Please
contact Mr. Miles if you have any questions.
Wrestling has started. We have a fantastic group
of dedicated wrestlers this season and they
would love to see you cheer them on at our two
home matches on November 17th and 29th.
BCMS students and staff are recognized monthly
for different behavior traits through our
Citizen of the Month program. October’s trait
was Responsibility and our winners were: Blake
Rice (6th), Sierra Petesch (7th), Mallory
McLeish (8th), and Val Sorensen (staff).
Congratulations to all. Next month’s trait is
Citizenship.
BCMS is currently looking for parents who would
be interested in discussing ideas and sharing
information from Boundary County Middle School.
We are also interested in 8th grade parents
willing to be the 8th grade promotion dance
committee. If you are interested in either of
these opportunities, please contact Principal
David Miles II at BCMS to sign up and leave
contact information.
