BHMS Principal's Update 9/11/21
The Beginning of School
The start of school has been unbelievably fast paced, but it has been so rewarding. We have loved having the students back and have met with each class as they are beginning to recognize what it means to be a Bulldog and the responsibility that comes with it. Moreover, we have had discussions about kindness and honoring those who sacrificed so much 20 years ago.
We hope you have a wonderful weekend. Please notice the information about our Virtual Back to School Night. We look forward to the time when we can all be in person again.
Sincerely,
Mike D'Ostilio

Message from Ms. Braker, advisor of the running club
****Updated/Changed Information****
Looking ahead, running club will be Tuesdays and Thursdays... after school starting September 28, 2021. The club will meet in room C19. Make sure you get an updated physical in to the nurse as soon as possible so you don’t miss any runs. This year we plan to start with a time trial, similar to what you do in gym, so we can track progress. Miss Heston ran in college and will share some tips with us as well. If you have younger siblings or friends you think might want to join us, send them this email.
We will still have our monthly Sunday runs at the park, we are aiming for the second or third Sunday of each month, but we’ll have to see how that works out. I will send out info as soon as we set some dates. We also plan on doing some fundraising so we can buy shirts for the team. Any artistic peeps out there, come up with a design. Maybe a running bulldog?
That’s all for now. Look for a second email next week with some race opportunities. Read, actual races, not the virtual ones.
Take care and happy running.

This pandemic has created so many questions and concerns for students that are well beyond academics. We are committed to providing a safe environment where students can express themselves as they question the ebb and flow of their world around them.
