Speech Team Tournament

The Speech and Debate team had their first tournament this last weekend, and 16 of our 20-person team competed! All of the kids have been hard at work over the last four weeks preparing for this tournament and they gave their all against 6 other schools in Southern Oregon.


Some rounds were separated by first-time competitors (novice) and returning competitors (open), if an event is not listed as a novice or open below, it means first-time competitors competed against returners.


Here are the results from our first tournament:


  • Sidda Radcliffe - 1st place Novice Prose
  • Maya Tulles - 1st place Dramatic Interpretation
  • Daniel Cabrera - 1st place Open Prose
  • Daniel Cabrera - 1st Place Humorous Interpretation
  • Kenny McMillen - 1st Place Extemporaneous Speaking
  • Tyler Eickhoff - 3rd Place Humorous Interpretation
  • Maya Tulles - 4th place Open Impromptu (previously misreported as 5th)


And then we swept Duos(!):


  • Kenny and Felicia McMillen - 1st place
  • CJ Kilcoyne and Matthew Stack - 2nd place
  • Sam Tiffee and Georgie Brown - 3rd place



Congratulations to our BHS Speech Team and a huge shoutout to their dedicated and hardworking leader, Ms. Ashley Pearson!

7th/8th Grade Conferences

7th/8th grade conferences are targeted only. If your student has failing grades, we will reach out to you to schedule a conference. If your student does not meet the criteria for a targeted conference, but you would still like to come and chat with teachers, please give our office a call to schedule a time.

Cell Phone Policy

Just a reminder, students are not allowed to have cell phones out during school hours. We require them to be kept off and in their locker or backpack during the day. This includes breaks and at lunch. Please encourage your student to come to the office or their teachers if they have a concern or need help instead of reaching out to you via cell phone during the day. This way we can help make sure that all your student's needs are being met. We have a student phone available in the commons that is always available.
