Saludo a las familias de BGMS,
Me complace anunciar que el Sr. Jake O'Rear y la Sra. Emily McKay comenzarán a dar clases el lunes 19. Esto significa que se cambiarán las clases de muchos estudiantes a medida que reestructuramos el horario maestro para satisfacer mejor las necesidades de nuestros
estudiantes. También tenemos al Sr. Lorenzo Sandoval viniendo a bordo como Subdirector. ¡Únase a mí para dar la bienvenida a los nuevos miembros de nuestra familia Cougar!
Chris Kinney
BGMS Principal
If you missed school pictures today, don't worry. Picture make up day will be Wednesday November 2nd.
Dear Baechtal Grove Parents,
This year we have a unique opportunity to reimagine the future of Baechtel Grove Middle School. Our new principal, Chris Kinney, is committed to improving our school and supporting our teachers. We are fortunate that many wonderful new teachers have joined our veteran staff this year. Together they are working hard to ensure academic success, support positive behavior and enhance the perception, appearance, and safety of our school. To stay on this positive trajectory they need our help!
Now is the time for parents to come together and secure our role as advocates for our students. One great way to do this is to establish a parent teacher organization, or a PTO. The initiation of a PTO will increase communication between the school and families. Parents will have a voice and also act as a listening ear for our staff and administration. By working together, we really can create the changes we want to see at BGMS.
Our goal is to gather a minimum of 5-7 parents to get the ball rolling, but hope everyone will jump on board. Please stop by the PTO table at back to school night for some iced coffee or lemonade. This will be a great time chat about your ideas and pick a date for the first meeting.
Sincerely,
Parents of BGMS students.
