Believe, Achieve, Succeed!

January 10, 2021 Volume I

“The Best in the U.S.A”

The deadline to apply to attend Barack Obama Male Leadership Academy next year has been extended to February 7th. Recommendations from current parents is the best endorsement of our campus! Please encourage young men to apply if you believe that your son has benefited from our program. BOMLA has a proven track record of academic success that is well known inside and outside of Dallas. One of my recruitment goals is to develop ways to show the extra curricular activities that make BOMLA unique. We have a vibrant Fine Arts program on our campus. I am working with the teachers to find creative ways to virtually showcase what the Brothers are doing in their classrooms.

We are asking teachers and students to continue to follow the safety guidelines in place. We have proven that we can deliver high quality virtual learning to all students. If you are choosing to come to campus or to stay at home, we are committed to delivering equity. Parents have contacted the school to thank us for the flexibility that we offer our parents and students. Please contact the school if you are interested in changing your learning preference.

As a reminder, the district will close January 18th, 2021 in observance of the Holiday honoring Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.

Let’s make it another great week at BOMLA!

I am emphasizing line three of our Campus Creed for January: “We believe that success is brought about by perseverance not chance.” With perseverance, we will be successful in our efforts to safely navigate through the end of this pandemic and in our goal to be “The Best in the USA!”

I am adding a link to the district calendar so that you can see all upcoming holidays and testing dates. https://www.dallasisd.org/calendars
