Message from the Principal

Hello families and friends of BAMS!!!

As we welcome the fresh breeze of March and eagerly anticipate the arrival of spring, we are filled with pride and optimism for what our students and staff have accomplished and what lies ahead this month. March is a month of renewal and growth, and we are excited to see what will happen next!

Spring sports will begin on March 4th.  We wish the best of luck to our baseball, softball, lacrosse, and track and field teams as they begin their season!

The BAMS Drama Club is in the middle of their musical production - Newsies!  We have almost 90 students participating in the cast and crew and it has been amazing to watch this show come together.  Thank you to the parents, guardians, families, and friends who have already shown so much support for this year’s production!  Well done!!
