Tiger Beat June 2nd, 2023

The Class of 2023 traveled down to California on their senior trip chaperoned by Principal Mrs. Radcliffe and teachers: Mr. Haan, Mrs. Villagomez and Ms. Moore. The group had a blast at Six Flags, Aquarium of the Bay, and enjoyed a ferry ride through San Pablo Bay and San Francisco Bay to Fisherman's Warf.. They also made lots of fun stops along the way to pick up souvenirs as a memorabilia of their final times together. This is going to be a class we miss dearly at Bandon High School, we are so proud of them and are thankful to have been a part of their journey along the way.

The Lady Tigers are the 2023 2A Track & Field State Champions! Congratulations to senior Danielle McLain, juniors: Makiah Vierck, Katelyn Senn and Analise Miller, and freshmen: Safaa Dimitruk, Caitlyn Michalek and Marley Petrey. This accomplishment also completes the grand slam of all coaching for Coach Brent Hutton, assisted by his wife, Coach Tricia Hutton who has brought home a team state title in all 4 sports - Boys and Girls Cross Country and Boys and Girls Track & Field. Congrats to all of our athletes and coaches!

Students & Parents: we are currently forecasting for next year's classes. We have many classes available, including college dual-credit options, and now is the time to get these confirmed. Please contact Mrs. Robertson by phone at 541-347-4413 or by email at erinr@bandon.k12.or.us if you are interested in talking about these opportunities!

There is only 1 more week left of the 2022-2023 school year! Parents & Guardians, please make sure you are monitoring your student's progress by frequently checking your Parent Portal accounts. This program allows you to see your child's attendance, grades and any fees they may owe to Bandon High School. For help accessing this information, you can contact our office at: 541-347-4413.

*Fees need to be paid by the last day of school, thank you.

Track awards will be held on Tuesday, June 6 at 4:00 PM in the track shed.

Bandon High School students get out at 12:00 PM on Thursday, June 8th. Parents & Guardians please make sure to have your student(s) turn in any books, calculators or any other items that belong to BHS by the 8th.

The Lost & Found is on display in front of the office. Please look to see if any of these items belong to you before they are donated.

As we come to the end of the school year, please make sure that you are checking your student's portal to see their grades and any fees you may owe. Please contact the office if you need help figuring out how to do this. You may also email teachers from the portal if you have any questions about grades or assignments. Let's end the 22-23 school year strong!

Our lost and found is full! We will be putting our lost and found outside the office next week. Please come check it out or have your student take a look, as all items will be donated after the school year ends.

This week our 6th grade students dissected frogs in their science class. Make sure to ask them how it went!

All of our students should have signed a behavior agreement form that acknowledges that they have reviewed the student handbook, and know what the behavior expectations are at HLMS. We would appreciate it if you could take a moment to review the student hand book (link below) as well.

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.

Valley Flora wanted to alert you to a few new programs that we - and other NW farms - are spearheading in in order to make fresh, local produce more accessible to low income families in our community. We’re trying to get the word out as widely as possible. If you have a spot to hang a poster (attached below), or room for a mention in your next newsletter, that would be wonderful! We are happy to provide you with a color-printed poster, just let us know! Also, please feel free to forward this email to anyone in your networks who would benefit from knowing about these programs.

• Double Up Food Bucks (DUFB): a program that helps low-income Oregonians purchase more fruits and vegetables while supporting local, family farms. Folks with SNAP benefits can purchase one of our farm’s community supported agriculture (CSA) shares and DUFB will provide 1:1 matching funds (they pay half the cost of the CSA with SNAP and DUFB covers the other half). It's a win-win that strengthens our community by providing better access to fresh, healthy food while helping local farmers earn a living.

• CSA Sliding Scale: our farm is offering a voluntary sliding scale payment system in order to make our food more accessible to everyone in the community. It’s been a beautiful example of community - and humanity - at its best.
