The Bronco Roundup
September and October 2024 🎃
A Message from Our Principal, Mrs. Guillory:
I want to take a moment to talk about the significance of our words and the responsibilities that come with them. Words have the power to uplift, inspire, and bring about positive change. However, they can also cause fear, confusion, and harm if not used thoughtfully. One classic example is the phrase "Fire!" in a crowded movie theater. Yelling this without cause can lead to panic, chaos, and even injury. It’s not just about the literal fire; it’s about the impact of our actions on those around us. This scenario serves as a reminder that our words hold weight and can influence the emotions and actions of others. In our school community, we strive to create an environment of respect and understanding. Whether it’s in our classrooms, hallways, or during discussions, the way we communicate can shape our experiences. Let’s choose our words wisely supporting one another, fostering a sense of safety, and belonging. Remember, we each have the power to create a positive atmosphere through our language and actions. Let’s use that power to build each other up, rather than tear down. Thank you for being mindful of your words and as always Be Kind, Be Respectful, Be Prepared, and Be a BRONCO!
There's an App for That!
Calcasieu Close Watch App
There is a new App that can and will be used throughout the Parish to report things anonymously from your phone, iPad, or computer-The Close Watch App.
Brief Overview: A complaint is received by CPSO and law enforcement will check out the complaint to make sure it is legitimate and will then move forward.
Crimes and thefts can be reported, either in school or out, and it can prevent mass casualty incidents with just a few key strokes.
See something, say something, it’s right at your fingertips!
It's in the App Store called Calcasieu Close Watch.
*Remember, if you see or hear something, REPORT IT to a MBMS faculty or staff member IMMEDIATELY.*
