BHMS Principal's Update 6/7/21
End of Year Info, 9th Grade Sports, Summer Info
The end of the year always presents with a whirlwind of information. There are so many things happening in a short span of time. Recently, we were honored to have the opportunity to have our first in person awards ceremony in 15 months. On June 2, 2021, we had our awards night where we honored approximately 160 individual students. It was a very special time.
In this newsletter we are looking at summer information as well as information for next year. Please pay close attention to this newsletter and focus on the information that applies to your child. Lastly, please encourage your children to finish strong (both academically and behaviorally) these last few weeks. Many of you have been doing great. For those who are in danger of obtaining poor grades, please work with your teacher, counselors, and administrators this week to ensure that you have everything in order to succcessfully pass the course or attend summer school if necessary. Only a few more days Bulldogs!
Sincerely,
Mike D'Ostilio
