We have recently implemented an alternative calendar where we are currently banking minutes to make up for recent snow days. Although we have yet to determine the exact school start and end times, they will likely be similar to the current schedule. However, we will announce those times once we have them established

BHS Parents: CAPS Conferences will be held on March 11, 2024. On this day all 10th and 11th grade students will be required to attend during their conference time with a parent. If the parent and student do not attend the scheduled conference, the student will be marked absent for the day and will need to turn in a parent note. Over the next few weeks students will be working to create their class schedule for next year. We encourage you to have discussions with your student over the next few weeks regarding their needs and interests, which will help them in selecting courses for next year. Padres de BHS: Conferencias CAPS se llevarán a cabo el 11 de marzo de 2024. En este día todos los estudiantes de los grados 10 y 11 tendrán que asistir durante su tiempo de conferencia con un padre. Si el padre y el estudiante no asisten a la conferencia programada, el estudiante será marcado ausente por el día y tendrá que entregar una nota de los padres. Durante las próximas semanas los estudiantes estarán trabajando para crear su horario de clases para el próximo año. Le animamos a tener discusiones con su estudiante durante las próximas semanas con respecto a sus necesidades e intereses, lo que les ayudará en la selección de cursos para el próximo año.

If you are not receiving the district's text messages and would like to, text "START" to 98900. To receive messages, even after opting in, you must be a contact for your student in e-school. That means the back-to-school paperwork you filled out at the beginning of the year must have your number listed as a contact for the student. If you have opted out of receiving messages from a different district, chances are we use the same software, and you have also opted out of our communication.

BHS students and parents: Come get some help filling out your FAFSA this Thursday evening! #bhs #bhspanthers20232024

BHS will be closed on Monday, January 15th, in observance of the Martin Luther King Junior holiday. Classes will resume on Tuesday, January 16th. #bhs #bhspanthers20232024
