Welcome Back!
I hope that everyone was able to rest, refocus and prepare for another great week!
We are here on campus today planning for an even more impactful second 9 weeks at BOMLA.
Parent Conferences will be conducted in a new format to meet the needs of parents and teachers. Teachers are asked to conduct parent conferences during the week of October 23rd with parents requesting conferences, and with the parents of Brothers that they need to meet with. Please contact them to schedule a conference. All teachers should respond to your communication within 48 business hours. Please let me know if you have any concerns with setting up parent conferences, or if you have any concerns contacting teachers. Parent conferences can be requested anytime during the year.
Staff Contact Information
We are preparing for Recruitment Season again! The application for the new school year will open in less than one month! We want more students and families to see what a unique place BOMLA is. The testimonials of current BOMLA parents and students continue to be the best way to get this message out to the communities and families of Dallas ISD. Please contact Mr. Tello about recruitment opportunities.
Thank you!

This year's theme is "What is your Impact?"
These are the instructions to see the status of your son's bus.
Here are the bus routes for BOMLA.
Please register for Parent Portal. You can access your son's schedule, grades and attendance.
We will use our "Men of Purpose" book as a guide for the character development lessons during Lyceum. We will engage the Brothers with the following discussion questions to help them identify their purpose over the next few weeks.
1. How do you want people to remember you?
2. What would someone say about your life right now?
3. How have you made a difference in the lives of others?
Mondays will be for presentations. Tuesdays will be when we present the discussion and presentation topics for the following week. Wednesdays are when the Brothers get into their mentoring groups to discuss and prepare their presentations for the upcoming Monday. Please ask your son to share their thoughts with you at home.
We are working to make our dismissal even safer. We do not want any Brothers crossing the street to get to their parent's cars. It is difficult to see the cars, and it is difficult for the cars to see the Brothers trying to cross. Please continue to follow the dismissal procedures as we continue to improve the dismissal process.
Thank you for sending your son to school in his full uniform Monday through Thursday. The Brothers can wear their jeans with a House Shirt, BOMLA Sprit Shirt or a College Shirt. If you have questions about the expectations, please contact the school at 972-749-2100.
For safety reasons, please follow the Arrival and Dismissal Procedures. We are now asking the parents to only pick up their sons on the South side of Stag Rd . so their sons will not have to cross the street.
Please bring your son to school every day. When they are not able to attend, please bring the documentation to excuse the absence. Students must attend at least 90% of their classes in order to receive credit for the course.
Thank you for choosing The Barack Obama Male Leadership Academy!
Please call or email me if you have any questions!
Thank you!
