💜 Today, BMS proudly Purpled Up to honor our military children and recognize the sacrifices they make every day. 💜

This morning’s Purple Up Assembly was a meaningful time to celebrate, reflect, and show our support for our military-connected students.

A huge thank you to our Military Club sponsor, Becky O’Neal, for all the time and heart she put into making this event so special. We’re also so proud of our Military Club members — Saniya Jackson, London Bostic, Taytam Robinson, and Avery DeVita — for helping lead and participate in today’s program.

Thank you to our BMS Choir and Band, Benton High School AFJROTC, and our guest speaker, Lieutenant Colonel Matt Dougherty, for helping make this morning so meaningful.

Today was a great reminder that our military children are seen, supported, and deeply valued at BMS!💜
