It's time for BPMS FRI-YAYS! ☀️During lunch hours, students have been able to eat outside in the courtyard on the tables that were built by our community! 💫 BPMS staff is all smiles, happy to welcome students and see their colleagues again! 🎉 ZERO office referrals or major behaviors in week 1! Our learners were engaged, showing kindness towards others and accepted feedback! 👩🏻‍🏫Teachers across grade levels offered connection building activities like writing letters to their future selves, name tag drawing, two truths & a lie, get to know you surveys and more! #IgniteCoreMemories #ConsistencyisKey #BPMSEagles #Backtoschool

First day of school✅ Love is limits! Consistency is key & learning (even on the first day) is not optional at BPMS! The halls were buzzing with ALL OF THE FEELINGS today from staff and students! Families, we would love to see your first day pictures! #welcomeback #IgniteCoreMemories

🦅 Fri-YAYs for BPMS this week include: 👩‍🏫 staff on the IMPACT team gathered this week to prepare connection activities for students in the first weeks of school. The goal? To make sure that ALL students feel seen, valued and understood. Learning tasks created space to discuss how unique every child is who comes to us and in order to foster a sense of belonging, our job is to meet every child where they are! 👷🏽‍♀️students from NJHS came together to build picnic tables for our courtyard! The second phase of this project will include sanding & painting with alumni at ZBTHS who are in NHS now. We can't wait for our school family to enjoy their hard work! Special thanks to Ms. Heard, Mr. Jantzen & our band families who jumped in to help build! 🧠 the Admin team spent time reflecting on strengths in leadership style and finding their "working genius!" Are you curious to see how students and staff will benefit? Stay tuned all year long! We love middle school! Next week... STUDENTS & STAFF are back! #Sparkcuriosity #ignitecorememories #BPMS #LoveisLimits #ConsistencyisKey #LearningisNotOptional
