Back to School Reminders
The best way to communicate a transportation change for your student is to call the front office. Please do NOT email teachers or the front office as we cannot guarantee the email will be read in a timely manner. Transportation changes must be made no later than 1:30 p.m.
Car Rider Morning Drop-Off
For the safety and supervision of our students, all car riders must be dropped off in the morning in the car rider line around the back of the school. Students who are dropped off at the front of the building will be asked to walk around to the auditorium doors to enter the building. Thank you for your cooperation.
Social Media
Stay informed and follow us on Twitter @BGJHS and Facebook to see all the great things happening at BGJHS! Go Purples!
From the Nurse's Office
Parents: The school nurse consent forms must be turned in prior to the nurse seeing students. Complete and return the goldenrod forms sent home on the first day of school as soon as possible.
Any medication, emergency, daily, or as needed, must have orders completed by the doctor that prescribed the medication. Contact Nurse Rose for any questions or forms for doctors orders. Thank you!
