BMS Spotlight on Learning! This week, we would like to shine our BMS Spotlight on Becky Trahan, Steph Nary, Jaime Poirier, Krystal Sleboda, Kelly Nelson, Lynn Vargas, Amy Skadberg, and Elliott LeFaiver for your collective efforts, organization, and dedication in making this year’s testing season a success. It certainly takes a village to ensure testing goes as smoothly as possible. Looking forward to an equally smooth math assessment and science assessment (8th grade only). Thank you team for all that you do! Do you know of a BMS Faculty/Staff/Student member that is shining bright? If you do, please complete the form below and we can include the nomination in an upcoming newsletter. | ||||||||||
