Parents

While your student is enjoying their Round-Up experience, feel free to remain in the commons (cafeteria) for some parent-specific information.

The following topics will be discussed:

• AVID binders
• Kickstart Kids Karate
• Skyward and Naviance

We will also host a Q & A session with a panel of recent BMS alumni for a student perspective on middle school.

Parents are welcome to stay for all, or some, of the discussion topics – or feel free to leave campus and come back at pick-up time. Student pick-up will be in the commons at the same table where the Round-Up experience started.  

Kona Ice trucks will be parked on the bus ramp after Longhorn Round-Up!
