Tomorrow is make-up picture day and the due date for Beta permission slips and $10 for the convention next week!
Last week, our students participated in the Annual BMS College Cup Competition. Homerooms could earn points by participating in the daily spirit week themes, decorating their classroom door to reflect a college campus in WV, and completing college/career themed activities such as a college vocabulary word match, school scavenger hunt, college logo match, college bingo, and career family tree. One homeroom from each grade level won the prize of double intramurals. We had a great week full of fun and learning! Thanks to all for the participation. @CFWV #CollegeBoundWV

Today our eighth-grade students participated in the West Virginia State Treasurer's Office Get a Life program. Students were able to experience what it would be like to budget with a minimum wage job versus a job with some type of postsecondary training or education after high school. We love this event because it teaches students life skills, and it also prepares them for their futures. We are so thankful for our volunteers who give up their morning to help with this event!
We apologize for an error, but the revised list for third place is attached!
