Great job by the 8th grade band, Mr. Maurizio, and Mrs. Haas at the football game on Friday! The 8th graders spent the last few weeks learning the music and the steps.




At this month’s meeting, the Builders Club learned about the Byron Public Libraries’ monthly activities for teens. Nancy McKay also brought a service project for them to complete. The club made cards for the organization Cards for Kids. These cards will be given to children who are in the hospital. Positive messages were written as well as fall decoration stickers were added. Their next meeting will be held Sept 30 at 7:00 am. New members are always welcomed.









Help Wanted

If you have ever been to an 8th grade band concert, it's hard not to be impressed with the skill of our 8th graders. That skill is a result of the hard work of our students, Mr. Maurizio, and Mrs. Haas. Here are a few pictures of our current 6th graders taking the first step in the process to becoming great musicians at BMS by playing their first note with their instruments!
