BHS HYBRID 2.0 UPDATE
This week, seniors that selected the hybrid learning option were invited to attend in-person learning on all five days next week. We successfully welcomed back our seniors while maintaining the health and safety of our BHS Community.
Seniors who selected hybrid learning may continue to attend in-person learning all 5 days, again next week. Current levels of students choosing in-person learning allow for the further expansion of in-person learning. Beginning Monday, February 01, 2021, all Juniors who selected hybrid learning mode are invited back to 5 days of in person instruction. Juniors who previously requested parking can park at the Field of Dreams (FOD) lot and enter the building via entrance 27. Please use the paved walkway from FOD to BHS. For those who prefer district provided transportation, please refer to the information below regarding Ride 360 bus information.
At a minimum, we intend to rotate grade levels weekly. However, initial hybrid attendance indicates that we may be able to accommodate two or more grade levels each week. We will update plans for subsequent weeks next week.
