BHS recognizes the flexibility and grit of students throughout the first semester. As such, semester final exams for some classes will be suspended. Some advanced placement and dual credit course may have final exams on December 21st and 22nd as required by the curriculum. Students in all other classes will provide additional evidence of understanding, based on their performance. Regular school day attendance policies apply the week of finals.

- A positive case is counted on the day it is reported. Every day after, it is placed in the quarantine category.
- Quarantine cases are total students and staff not attending school due to testing positive or exposure to a positive case.
- Positive cases for students are only counted for students who have been in the building for any reason (academic, athletics, clubs, etc.).
