I think BMS should be pround of their teachers. Especially the 7th grade social studies teacher and pre-ap english teacher. What assets you have!

Nobody is perfect, and if the parent sends a note saying it wasnt their fault, their is absolutely no reason for the child to be told that he/she should have walked to school. This is the only problem I have with BMS. Other than that, it is a good school with superb and caring teachers. Read less
