April 14th

Bears of Bryan Middle,

We’re entering a busy and exciting week at BMS!

This Wednesday and Thursday, we will be administering NSCAS Science for 8th grade and the Science MAP test for 6th and 7th grade. Please encourage your student to get a good night’s rest, eat a healthy breakfast, and bring their charged iPad to school.

We’re also thrilled to kick off our soccer season with the first games of the year on Tuesday! Come out and cheer on our Bears as they take the field—it's going to be a great season!

Just a reminder: there will be no school this Friday (April 19) and Monday (April 22). Friday is a teacher work day, and Monday is our district-wide Articulation Day.

Thank you for your continued support. Let’s make it a great week at Bryan Middle!

With Bear Pride,
Mr. Karmazin
Principal
Bryan Middle School
