🎃🍬 WOW, WHAT. A. NIGHT!!! 🚗💨 Our Trunk or Treat was an absolute BLAST! From the candy mountains 🏔️ (seriously, 850 lbs??) to the creative trunks that could’ve won Hollywood awards, to the incredible turnout — YOU all made it magical! 👻✨

We laughed, we mashed, we sugar-rushed… and we were reminded (again!) that we have the BEST community ever. 💙

Thank you to everyone who donated candy, decorated trunks, and came out to celebrate with us — you made this night one to remember! 🧡🖤

Shout out to Miss Rachel for pulling it all together!!!

Ever wonder what STEM looks like through the eyes of a student? It looks a lot like leaning how to use our critical thinking skills developed in the classroom to examine and solve real world problems!

Way to go Mr. Schildknecht!

Tackling authentic problems in science class helps students see the link between the lab and the challenges facing our world—and builds problem-solving skill...

Last week BMSA entered a few flowers/veggies in the Western Idaho Fair. Our entries did so well!!

🥇 These Plants are 1st Place Winners 🥇
Potatoes (planted by kindergarten)
Carrots (planted by 2nd grade)
Small marigolds (planted by 3rd)
Largest sunflower head (re-seeded from last year)

We also entered Zinnias, Marigolds, Tomatoes, Statice, and a Sunflower. They did pretty well overall.

All entries were planted by last year’s BMSA students.

Thank you to our volunteers who helped select items, deliver them to the fair, and check results last week!
