In an effort to collect and compare annual feedback from our students, parents, and guardians, please take a few minutes to complete the survey below. We appreciate your time and input as this helps us to make decisions about the programs, funding, and needs at BHS. This information is anonymous and will be reviewed by our School Site Council (students, teachers, parents), administration, and by our full staff. Previously, this information has been used to help make decisions about offering career/college field trips, becoming a 1:1 Technology school, and updating school rules/regulations.

If you would like to offer additional feedback and suggestions other than what is included in this survey, please reach out to an administrator or counselor. Also, we are looking for more parent/guardian representatives to join our 2019-2020 School Site Council. Please consider serving BHS in this way and contact Ms. Kleinschmidt if you are interested. The Site Council meets on the second Tuesday of each month at 3:30pm and works to create and monitor our School Action Plan.

Flavors mask the harsh taste of tobacco which makes it easier for kids to smoke — and most kids don’t know that flavored e-cigarettes are high in nicotine.

Flavors

The tobacco industry is hooking the next generation of addicts, and flavors are a big way in.

4 out of 5 kids who have used tobacco started with a flavored product.

Those numbers suggest that most underaged users might never have tried vaping if tobacco tasted like tobacco. From Juul’s popular mango to thousands of options available for Suorin and other open systems, flavors hook kids on a drug known to be as addictive as heroin.

Nicotine

The rise in teen vaping is finally news. But we need to know more about kids’ consumption of nicotine, such as how high the doses, and how great the risks. Modern devices can have up to 6x the nicotine concentration of first generation e-cigs, putting kids at risk of not only a nicotine addiction, but substance addiction of all kinds.

Poison

Nicotine is one of the most toxic of all poisons. It can rewire the brain, particularly vulnerable in the developing years, from adolescence to mid-twenties. In what ways? Nicotine changes the teen brain and affects attention, learning, and memory. It can worsen stressors already challenging in adolescence: impulsivity, learning difficulties, irritability, anxiety and mood swings. But unlike other adolescent phases, changes to the brain from nicotine can be permanent.
