On May 5, 2009 the City of Batavia, Board of Education unanimously approved the beginning of our new Batavia Middle School Connect program. As a school community, we are striving to improve upon the fifth grade to sixth grade transition. Not only will our BMS Connect program prepare sixth grade students for their journey through BMS, they will also be participating in a student mentor program. To do this, sixth grade students will be jumpstarting their school year on Wednesday, September 9, 2009 with the help and guidance of their eighth grade mentors. All BMS staff will be present on September 9, to help the sixth grade students build connections and walk through their schedule for the first day.
BMS Connect Day
As mentioned above, the 2009-2010 school year begins on Wednesday, September 9th for sixth grade students and their eighth grade mentors. The doors will open at 8:00am and students are expected to be in the auditorium by 8:07am. Students will be dismissed at 2:45pm. Students in seventh grade and those eighth graders that are not student mentors do not need to report on September 9, 2009.
