Building wide expectation:

Students are testing the boundaries of the BPS code of conduct.

Dress Code : Per Page 45 of the BPS student code of conduct

No excessive skin, inappropriate logos or exposed undergarments

As we approach the Halloween holiday - the dress code does not allow for costumes, face paint or attire that disrupts the learning environment or contribute to a hostile and/or intimidating atmosphere for any student.

This week, our school community is focusing on the following priorities:

• Boystown Social Skill: Sub Behavior

• Building Wide Expectation: Responsible, Respectful, Ready In the Restroom

• Respectful behavior for the Restroom

• Notify staff of issue or damage

• Respect personal space/privacy

• Use good Hygiene

7 days left for the 2026 Fall Fundraiser. As of October 14th our building has sold over $9000. The fundraiser will end October 22nd. If your student doesn't sign up, but you would like to possibly purchase some items, use the QR code on this page, to look at items. This is a store built under Mr. Gocke's name, but is being used as a general Mission Middle School page for this years fundraiser.

Picture Retakes are October 29th- If our child is having their picture retaken, please return the entire contents of the package on Make-up Day. Retakes are availabe for things such as glass glare, eyes closed, photographic error or absences.

A retake fee may apply of $5 for changes in hairstyle, attire, or lack of expression. The photographers make every effort to get a smiling portrait of each student. If you have questions please contact Jeremy Johnson Photo at 292-8438.

Each year Bellevue Public Schools is required under federal law to conduct a “First Count” on a specified date. The “First Count” is an actual form that parents/guardians are asked to complete for every child enrolled in the Bellevue Public Schools. These forms are then used to determine Bellevue’s eligibility and funding through the Impact Aid Program. Impact Aid is a federal program that provides funding to local school districts as a result of the presence of a federal installation. The information you provide on the form is confidential and will only be available to school and federal officials.

Open office hours are from 7:45 am - 4:00 pm

Dear Mission Middle School Families,

As we approach November 11th, we want to recognize our military community and our connectedness to those who have served our armed forces. During the month of November we will build a Veterans of Mission wall to celebrate and recognize those who have served our country. If you and your student could share some info and possible pictures of your relatives who served in any branch of the military we would love to include them on our Veterans of Mission Wall.

The Weather is changing and we will still have student be outside form 7am -7:59 am as long as the temperature stays above 30 degrees and the wet weather stays away.

Doors open at 8am we suggest your student wear a jacket and dress appropriately if they are being dropped off early. Once the school day starts jackets and blankets will be kept in locker and not brought into the classroom.

In education
