Yesterday, our first graders had a wonderful time visiting the Bear Den Zoo & Petting Farm! They loved meeting friendly animals like goats, bunnies, and kittens, and were excited to see more wild animals such as a raccoon, badger, black bear, lemur, and a few foxes. Students also had fun playing on the zoo’s playground and enjoyed a hayride through the woods. It was a fun-filled day of hands-on learning and outdoor adventure!

🎭 On October 16, our 5th and 6th grade students attended “Katie – The Strongest of the Strong” at the College of Lake County! This inspiring opera told the story of Katie Sandwina — a celebrated strongwoman with the Barnum & Bailey Circus in the early 1900s. 💪 Not only was Katie known for her incredible strength, but she also used her powerful voice to support the Women’s Suffrage movement. Students enjoyed learning about the elements of opera while discovering Katie’s remarkable true story! 🌟

Yesterday, our BMS Dance Team had their first performance—and they were amazing! They’ve been working so hard, and their debut was a hit with the crowd. We are so #MustangProud of our BMS Dance Team!
Recently, our 3rd-grade students were invited to Badger High School for the annual Agriscience Day. Students explored topics such as soils, aquaponics, plant propagation, beekeeping, and much more through engaging, hands-on presentations led by Badger High School students. It was especially exciting to see some of our former Mustangs serving as such wonderful role models!
