Student Schedules and First Day of School

Dear BBMS Families,

We were so impressed with our 6th grade students today during their orientation. It was great to see everyone back in the building - the energy level was definitely high today!

And, a big thank you to all our 8th Grade WEB Leaders who ran the orientation activities. It was a great day!

Tonight, parents and students will be able to access student schedules live in your online accounts. Please remember to update your FAMILY FILE when you go in if you haven't already.

Student schedules are now locked in place for the beginning of the school year. Students will receive an additional copy of their schedule on the first day of school.

Any requests that we receive now to move classes due to student interests/preferences or course level changes will be shared with our counselors and teachers. Each year in the first marking period, teachers will review student placements and make recommendations if level changes are appropriate. Those recommendations are then reviewed to see if changes are feasible: in addition to a student's performance, we do have to take into account class sizes and student schedules. Due to these constraints, not all requests are possible and movement between courses just may not be able to happen.

We will send a list of Homerooms (Shark Tutorial) in a separate email. This is where students will start their day on Tuesday.

Thank you for a great day everyone - we will see you soon!
