BLMS Families,

And just like that it's March. Spring is in the air as warmer weather seems to be on the way. Students will enjoy getting back outside for PE, activities, and a little fresh air over their lunch time. It's hard to believe we are almost to trimester 3. Testing happens, 8th graders are excited to move to the high school, summer school planning kicks in, and the excitement the last third of the year brings.

Regards,

Principal, Mark Ernst & Assistant Principal, Randi Anderson

Our expectations for various areas of the school

Celebrating History Day

Our students did such a great job with their History Day projects this year. Students worked alone or with a partner designing a project in a number of ways to highlight an important date in history. Many students qualified for regional competition. Many also volunteered to judge the day including some of our board members ans well as our Mayor! Thanks goes to all. Below are our qualifiers as well as some pictures from the day.
