Hello BMS Parents & Guardians!
The 5Essentials Survey is open, and we would greatly appreciate you taking the time to fill it out! The survey asks you for feedback on important areas of school life, including school leadership, teacher collaboration, and the overall learning environment. Your feedback helps us determine what we are doing well and where we can improve. Last year was the first time we received a report based on parent responses, and now we will be able to compare this year's results to last year's for the first time.
The survey takes just a few minutes to complete. Please look for the survey link at http://survey.5-essentials.org/illinois/survey/parent/ and submit your responses by March 13th.
Thank you and have a great day! Mike Sand
