One final event to close out the week .... our annual SWAT Week fundraiser dodgeball game. What a great afternoon, and congratulations to our winning team! Thank you to Mrs. Wisniewski and Mrs. Yeagley for organizing this fun event, and helping raise funds for a worthy cause.
As we approach the end of the semester, we want to provide you with important details regarding test exemptions and student check-out procedures:
Exemption Days: Semester test exemption days are scheduled for Tuesday and Wednesday.
Class-Based Exemptions: Exemptions are granted on a class-by-class basis. Students are not required to attend classes for which they are exempt. However, if a student is on campus, they are expected to attend all of their scheduled classes and take the semester test for any class they attend.
Check-In and Check-Out: Students may check in and out between test sessions, but they may not arrive late to a test session or leave early.
Make-Up Test Day: Any student who misses a semester test will have the opportunity to make it up on Thursday, May 22.
Walk-Home Permission: Students who have a walk-home form on file may be checked out for test sessions only if a parent or guardian calls the office before 9:30 AM on that day to give verbal permission.
Check-Out by Another Parent: If your child plans to be checked out by another student’s parent, please call the office before 9:30 AM to provide permission.
In-Person Check-Outs After 9:30 AM: If permission to walk home or be checked out by another adult has not been given by 9:30 AM, your child may still be checked out, but it must be in person by the parent or guardian. This policy helps our office staff prepare accurate walker lists.
Broncho Time Check-Outs: Students may be checked out during Broncho Time from 1:30 to 3:00 PM on Wednesday. Please note that this is a high-traffic time in the office and long lines are expected, so we encourage you to plan accordingly.
If you have any questions, please don’t hesitate to contact the Middle School office.
This has been a busy week for BMS students -- in addition to preparing for the end of the year and semester tests, students had an Awards Ceremony on Monday night, and a yearbook signing party on Tuesday after school. We hope everyone is loving their BMS yearbooks this year!
Congratulations to our May (final for the year!) students of the month! 8th grade: Walley Espinoza, Lilly Weece; 7th grade Maddox Edwards, Blythe Hawkinson; 6th grade Kennedy Brooks, Boston Pipkin. Way to finish the year strong, Bronchos!
REMINDER -- Tuesday, May 20th at 6pm, there will be a meeting at the HS Corral for anyone interested in running cross country next school year. We will be discussing what summer workouts look like and expectations. We do not know about 6th graders running right now, if you have an incoming 6th grader that is interested in running I would still come to the meeting for the information just in case. Again, if you are not able to make this meeting please message me on Rooms or by email at zcoulson@bethanyschools.com
Thank you so much!
Coach Zac Coulson

Yearbook staff members had a great (late!) evening after the awards ceremony last night , getting their own "reveal" of this year's book they worked so hard to create, and then preparing and organizing books for today's signing party. Great job to the staff ... what a year, and what a book! (Students who are not attending the signing party after school today will receive their books Wednesday during Broncho Time.)
Information for 8th grade athletes who are planning to play high school football next year:
1. The players meeting has been rescheduled for Monday, May 19th.
2. Students who are already in strength and conditioning will attend that meeting during 7th hour on Monday.
3. Students who are NOT currently in 7th hour strength & conditioning will need to arrange transportation to the field at 3pm on Monday. We will not be releasing from school for the meeting.
4. All players need to go to the field house this week after school, either Tue-Wed-Thur to meet regarding equipment.
