Mr. O's Outlook
What a night it was at Graduation on Thursday! We have one of the finest gyms in the state - to see it packed full of family, friends, community members, faculty, and most importantly, our graduates, was an awesome sight. Thank you to everyone who joined us!
I could not be more proud of our senior class and all of their accomplishments. They have been a true pleasure to work with over the last four years. I look forward to seeing their future success.
If you missed the ceremony last night, feel free to use the link below to watch the recording.
Have a great weekend,
Dr. O

Student Support
Success Center
BHS offers "Success Center" from 1:35pm-2:20pm for students who want a quiet environment to work after school. Remember, Success Center is still during the normal school day - this is not "after school." Students can come to the Media Center to work on their online courses, retake assessments, or get help from teachers, all in a very quiet setting. There will be four staff members present during Success Center to support students.
In some cases, students will be required to attend Success Center. For example, students who are not making adequate progress on their online course will be assigned to attend Success Center - it will not be optional. As another example, a teacher may require a student to attend so that they can retake a test or catch up on homework - again, this will not be considered optional.
We are proud to offer this intervention to support student learning, provide reteaching opportunities, and help students get back on track. Thank you for your support!
