On Friday, September 4, we will hold our 6th Annual BMS House Sorting Ceremony! For families new to our building, we utilize a House System as a way to bring all of our students together. Everyone in our building is in a House. Each House has traditions, history, and principles they stand for. Our four Houses are:
- ALTRUISMO, the House of Givers
- AMISTAD, the House of Friendship
- ISIBINDI, the House of Courage
- REVEUR, the House of Dreamers
Our House System gives EVERYONE a group to be a part of. We compete against each other to see which House can earn the most points each week, quarter, and for the whole year. Students earn points for academic achievements, attendance, following our building expectations, good character, and school spirit (joining a club or sport, attending sporting events, etc). The competitions can be very close and exciting!
EVERY Wednesday is HOUSE SPIRIT DAY! We all wear our House color and can sit with our House members to eat lunch. Students will receive their House shirts for this year in a few weeks. Throughout the year, our Houses have meetings, competitions, and work together on service projects.
