Student Driver's Info.
Student Drivers:
As we approach the start of the 2023-2024 SY, we would like share information regarding Student Parking Permit applications. There are a limited number of permits, and applications will be sent to Seniors first, followed by Juniors. Any student who has an obligation from the 2022-2023, either financial or detentions, must have their obligations cleared by Thursday, 8/24/23 at 2:45PM. Laptop/technology fees for the 2023-2024 SY will not impede a student from purchasing a permit as they assigned during the first week of school and are not due until September. This is also true for athletic fees which are due in September as well. Students and families can check financial obligations in the Infinite Campus portal under the "Fees" tab. Students can check in ISS to see if they owe detentions, and students may serve detentions after school, starting Monday, August 21 st. Student Parking Permit information is attached for both students and parents/guardians to review. Please note, students must have a valid driver's license when purchasing their permit or they will be denied.
The Senior Parking Permit Signup G-Form will be emailed on Sunday, August 20 th at 7:00PM. Junior signup forms will be emailed on Sunday, August 27 th at 7:00PM. Applications will be reviewed and approved in the order they are received.
It is important that all students and families develop a backup plan if they do not receive a parking permit. During the first week of school, parking is available to all. Additional information will follow as we approach Sunday, August 20 th.

BCTC Infomration
We are excited that you will be starting/ continuing at BCTC this coming school year and taking advantage of great opportunities that both schools have to offer. We wanted to reach out to you to make sure you are prepared to have a successful start to the year.
BCTC begins on Wednesday, August 23. Therefore, all BCTC students will be staying at BASH for the full day on Monday, August 21 and participating in HR activities without having to miss any BCTC instruction.
On Tuesday, 8/22, all PM BCTC students will meet in the LGI for a brief meeting after period 4 with Mrs. Mazzie and Mrs. Shive. An announcement will be made telling you to report to the LGI.
On Wednesday, 8/23, all AM BCTC students will meet in the LGI for a brief meeting when you arrive back at BASH. Security will be in the front of the building to direct you.
AM BCTC students are to meet the busses in the morning at the Athletic Entrance. Busses leave for BCTC promptly at 7:40AM. School personnel will be outside helping you get on the correct bus
PM BCTC students will board their busses outside of the Main Entrance at approximately 11:10AM. Students should report to the Main Entrance after 4th period and wait outside the building. There is no need to leave 4th period early and your teachers have been instructed as such.
Upon returning back from PM BCTC, East campus students should wait until West campus students return to board their vans and busses. East students who are taking personal transportation home may leave upon arrival back to BASH
East PM BCTC students waiting for West PM BCTC students are to wait outside (on good weather days) and not leave campus.
Please check your emails daily, as we will communicate this way throughout the year
