BOUNDARYCOUNTY MIDDLE SCHOOL MAY 2012 The 2011-2012 school year is quickly drawing to a close. We are now done with the spring ISAT testing and the preliminary results are encouraging. The students have made solid progress and we are encouraged by the results and it was nice to see the effort the students gave to do their best on the tests. This year’s 8th graders will be visiting the high school on Tuesday, May 8th to tour the school and begin registration for the classes they will be taking as freshmen next year. Move up day for next year's 6th, 7th and 8th grade students will be held on the morning of Tuesday, May 22nd. Students from the elementary schools who will be attending BCMS next year will have the opportunity to tour the school and meet their teachers. This fall before school starts, we will again be hosting transition day for all 6th graders. The date will be Thursday, August 30th. Last year's event proved very helpful to the students and staff as students showed up the first day more comfortable in their environment and ready to learn. Information will be sent out in August as well as mentioned in articles in the Bonners Ferry Herald. The end of year schedule is falling into place. We will try to provide and update you on some of the events. The annual eighth grade trip to Silverwood will be on Thursday, May 31st. The 7th grade boat building/races will be on Thursday, June 7th. The big event of the year of course is the 8th grade promotion, which is scheduled for Thursday, June 7th at 6:30 PM. The ceremony is followed by a dance, which runs until 11:00 PM. We invite you to attend any or all of these exciting events. If you have any questions regarding any of these events, please contact the office at 267-5852, or just stop by and visit.

Cyberbullying: New Problems, New Tactics
Bullying is an old problem that remains difficult to bring under control, in part because technology offers new ways for kids to pick on one another. Indeed, cyberbullying can extend the reach and power of some of the worst bullies, subjecting kids to taunts from beyond their own schools and neighborhoods.
