We invite all 6th, 7th and 8th grade prospective families to take a moment and share a little about yourself so we can get to know you. Please use this link to complete our Bishop Montgomery inquiry form if you haven't already. Doing so will ensure that you are in the loop, on your game, and the first to know when new events open up and new information becomes available. And, you have our promise that all of your information stays at Bishop Montgomery-- we NEVER share with outside or third parties.

Our plan includes welcoming back our seniors and our freshmen prior to Easter break, and then implementing our full hybrid model of instruction once school resumes on April 13. Following state and county guidelines for the safest possible learning environments for our faculty and students, our hybrid model brings 25% of our students on to campus each day, four days a week (M, T, Th and F). The remaining students continue with synchronous, remote learning from home.

If COVID case rates continue to decline across the county, LA County will eventually advance to the Orange Tier. When the County moves to the Orange Tier, BMHS will be able to have more students on campus each day as guidelines loosen.

When the start of the 2020-21 school year mandated online learning, Bishop purposefully added a Community Day (Wednesday) to the weekly schedule-- a day full of opportunities for campus-wide faith-building, social engagement, mental health and well-being, and academic support. Each Wednesday, after checking in with their first period teacher for attendance, announcements, and morning prayer, students have a flex schedule to work on asynchronous (independent) class assignments, visit teachers during our standing 9:30-11:30am office hours, participate in prayer experiences, attend virtual club meetings and fun ASB-sponsored events, join mental health workshops hosted by our Choices personal counseling department, as well as other workshops including college essay-writing and navigating high school during the pandemic. Our Community Day has proven to be effective and powerful, not only for our students and faculty to connect and

collaborate outside of the classroom, but also to recharge and alleviate some of the Zoom fatigue that can come with months of online learning.

As all of us continue to navigate this uncertain time with our students and their families, we work to maintain structure, dependability, comfort, and connection within our community. We will also remain committed to upholding Bishop Montgomery standards each day, both in-person and online, and bring value to the learning experience.

Bishop's new Science, Technology, Engineering, Arts, and Media facilities are ready for our Knights' return to campus and use of these new spaces! Completed last summer, our new engineering lab/maker space, robotics studio with competition field, PC lab, eSports room, World Languages lab, and dedicated digital arts/Mac lab have been dormant during the pandemic, just waiting for student hands and minds to jump in and go. We can't wait to see how our students use these spaces and the equipment in them to support their learning!

Principal Jim Garza envisioned these facilities when he assumed leadership at BMHS in 2018. With an eye on 21st century skill development, as well as college and career readiness, he wanted flex spaces on campus that supported STEAM learning. The educational benefits of these new areas, in combination with Bishop's steadfast focus on faith formation, help prime our students to be both technologically savvy and prepared for the next chapter of their lives, and also use that knowledge to be stewards of faith in the ever-changing world before them.
