Students are selected for student of the week based off one or many of their character traits that aligns with what we value here at BCMS.  The students represented for our student of the week award have exhibited the following 7 traits that we reference as The Bison Way:

RESPECT: Thinking about others feelings before you act

SERVICE: Carrying out an act of kindness

ATTITUDE: Being hopeful, positive and confident

COURAGE: Going on when you don’t have the strength

INTEGRITY: Doing the right thing even when no one is watching

COMPASSION: Showing kindness and a willingness to help others

And

CHARACTER: Strong mental and moral qualities that are distinctive to an individual.

Bison Bucks are given to those students who show their respectfulness, positive attitude, and integrity. Every month at the end of the month all of the Bison Bucks are placed in a drawing for one student in each grade level to win some Bison gear. Bison Bucks are then mailed home to show you how much we appreciate their efforts in making BCMS a great place for all.
