By Principal David Miles II
School is already 1/8th of the way done? Hard to
believe time can go so fast, but when you are
really busy, I guess it is hard to see time go
by. BCMS is as active as always while students
and staff participate in a myriad of events.
First, let’s congratulate our September Citizens
of the Month for showing responsibility. Sixth
grade students were Asha Abubakari and Addy
Heigel, seventh grade was Travis “Junior”
Atkins, eighth grade was Wyatt Hart and Sierra
Petesch, and our staff selection was Mr. Paul
Bonnell.
All these individuals show great respect to
others!

Next, let’s talk about our activities program
featuring large numbers involved in football,
cross country, volleyball, cheerleading, choir,
drama and band. Participation numbers are high
for all of our programs so if you haven’t had a
chance to come support our many involved
students please do so before the season ends.
BCMS recently celebrated Dig Pink Breast Cancer
Awareness by having students and staff dress up
wearing pink (photo above). It was amazing to
see how many students and staff took part. The
school even played a few songs about the color
pink in between classes to help raise the
spirit!
Here are some of the goings-on in the days
ahead:
* Choir will be hosting a concert at 7 p.m. Tuesday, October 17.
* We will be having a Pep/Fall sports recognition assembly at 3 p.m.
Thursday, October 19, to celebrate the many
successes and participation of our fall
athletes. There is our final home volleyball
game at 4:30 p.m. that day as well.
* We will be participating in Red Ribbon Week during the week of October
23.
* We will also be hosting a book fair during the week of October 23.
* Band is hosting its annual Spaghetti Feed and Band Concert beginning at
4:15 p.m. Tuesday, October 24.
* BCMS Leadership is sponsoring a “Ladies in Leadership” event at the
Homestead Great Room on David Thompson Way from
9 a.m. To 1 p.m. Saturday, October 28. This
event will have several local vendors selling
their wares as a celebration and recognition of
local lady leaders. You can contact Kelly
Hinthorn to get more information.
* Picture retakes will be October 30.
* The end of the quarter is November 2!
Our students are also involved in several other
projects. Staff is gearing up to roll out more
options such as the Patriot’s Pen Essay Contest,
the spelling bee, the geography bee and ongoing
art endeavors.
Of course, Halloween is coming up soon as well.
BCMS is allowing costumes to be worn on
Halloween Day as long as faces are not covered
and weapons are not brought to school (real or
fake). We will also be having activities at the
end of the day on Halloween that students can
earn by having good grades and no real behavior
concerns!
Due to this being mid-quarter already, we sent
report cards home with students on Wednesday,
October 11.
