Learning for Life
The Bolivar Way
These are the expectations that everyone will follow at BHS. That includes students, teachers, administrators, support staff. All of us. We will immediately start teaching these principles, and we will have a whole week later this month, LeadUp Week, that is dedicated to the principles of the Bolivar Way. I can't wait to see what we're gonna do this year.
1. Start With Questions - Be curious. Be a learner. Want to know more.
2. Aim For Excellence - Mediocrity is not tolerated here. The bare minimum is unacceptable. We are aiming for excellence!
3. Lead Up - Be a leader and set a good example. Do the right thing every time. Show the way.
4. Lift Up - Take care of yourself, each other, this place. Give encouragement. Help others.
5. Never Give Up - There will be challenges, obstacles, and days we just don't feel like being our best. But we must press on. No quit in us.

5 Things to Know About Chromebooks
1. All students must have a device for learning each day in classes. This year ALL BHS students will either 1) Pay a minimal fee and receive a school-issued Chromebook or 2) Bring your own device capable of running the Chrome web browser. We will no longer have a daily check-in and check-out option.
3. Internet is filtered at school and away from school. Away from school the filtering is a less restrictive. It filters the 'adult' category. However, the filter is not a substitute for parental guidance. Parents are encouraged to be involved is setting guidelines and expectations for how the Chromebook will be used in your home.
4. Students will be assigned the same Chromebook each year all through high school. It pays to take good care of the device since it's yours until you graduate.
5. Most students have done an outstanding job taking care of the devices. But it's not a bad idea to get an inexpensive case to help protect against damage. If a Chromebook is lost or damaged, the deductible is $25.00 to have it repaired or replaced.
