News & Notes from BMS for September 1st, 2017
Spirit Day: Wednesday, September 6th Brandon Blue-Football Allergy Reminder: This is a reminder that all BMS classrooms are peanut/nut butter, tree nuts, and egg free. However, your student is allowed to bring these food items to be eaten in our cafeteria at lunch time. Our stage area is going to be a peanut/nut butter, tree nuts, and egg free zone. That means if your student brings any of these items in their lunch they have to eat their lunch on the main level of the cafeteria. Washington DC 8th Graders: Our 8th Grade trip to Washington DC is scheduled for this fall, October 18-23. If you have not registered, there is still time to do so, but you must hurry as many important things are happening in preparation for the trip. To register, you can go online at www.worldstrides.com/signup (Use trip number 142910) or call 1-800-48-5899 and again use trip number 142910. If you have any questions, please contact our Trip Adviser Steve Hendershott at 248-627-1830 ext 1349 or email shendershott@brandon.k12.mi.us Parents who have registered, please remember the following: 1. Hoodies need to be ordered by September 1 at http://www.toolsportandsign.com/ Sweatshirts will be delivered to students at school later in September. 2. Health Forms and Behavior Contracts have to be turned in on or before September 12 in order to send your student. Without these two documents, they will not be allowed to travel on the trip. 3. Remember the Mandatory Meeting on September 12, 2017 at 7:00 PM. At this meeting we will go over the final details of the trip and allow students to pick their roommates (four to a room). Failure to attend this meeting will result in students assigned to room by Mr. Hendershott. 4. Snacks or water can be dropped off in the Main Office each day for the trip. Suggested items are Fruit Snacks, Rice Krispy Treats, Cheezits, or other similar items from Sam's Club or Costco. 7th grade Parents: Information about next year’s Washington DC trip will be given to your student after this year’s 8th grade trip so that you can attend a parent meeting to find out more about the 2018 trip. Hockey: Please read the attached documents about how to introduce your student to the game of hockey. Drop Off & Pick Up: All 8th grade drop offs and pickups will use the north entrance by Brandon Tire and all 6th grade drop offs and pickups will use the south entrance next to our bus loop. 7th grade students who have their 1st hour class upstairs will use the north entrance and 7th graders with their 1st hour class downstairs will use the south entrance. Students can enter the building at 7:00 AM. Students are then directed to sit and wait in the cafeteria until we dismiss them at 7:25. There are several new signs that are posted throughout the BMS campus to ensure that we have a safe and easy to follow traffic flow. If you have any questions about this please contact the BMS main office. Low Cost Internet Programs: Please see the attached flyer for a low cost internet program that you might be eligible for. Daily Schedule and Bus Line-Up: Please refer to the two documents below to help answer any questions about our daily schedule or the bus line-up.
