We want your help and feedback! It is time for the yearly 5 Essential Survey, and we would love to be able to increase our parent participation rate and hear directly from you areas of strength and areas of growth for Byron Middle School. Each student takes part in the survey and has earned an entry to win a gift card selected by each grade level team. They have a chance to earn a second entry if you take the survey as well. Once you have taken the survey, please email your child’s flex teacher. Once your child’s flex teacher has received word that you have completed the survey, your child earns a bonus entry into the drawing. All emails must be received BY MARCH 20th for the drawing on March 21st .While this becomes something fun for your student, we really want to celebrate the good things we are already doing at BMS and work towards fixing areas of concern. This survey will allow us to gather data to help reach that goal. If you have any questions, please don’t hesitate to reach out. All staff emails can be found on the BMS school website.
