JUNE 10 - Locker Clean-out. Expect lots of things you've been looking for all year!

JUNE11 - 7th grade to Detroit River Cruise / 8th grade field day

JUNE 12 - Last Day- dismissal at 11:34 am / 8th grade clap out through the building and around the track starting at 10:45 am / Staff wave goodbye to students at dismissal

Parents meet at the track around 11:00 to wave goodbye to their 8th graders. After, they end up at the parking lot and can leave for the summer.

Lost and Found Items

As we wrap up the school year, our lost and found is starting to look like a mini thrift store! If your child is missing a jacket, lunchbox, or even that one shoe they've been hopping around without, now's the time to reclaim it. All unclaimed treasures will be discarded on June 13th, so please swing by the lunchroom and see if anything belongs to your family before it disappears forever. Who knows? You might even find that long-lost umbrella or favorite sweater! Thanks for helping us clear out the mountain of misplaced items and avoid a school-wide game of "Whose Sock is This?"

See the attached link for this month's BAS Superintendent Newsletter. Have a productive final two weeks of the school year and I hope that everyone has a great summer! Go Dogs!

End of Year Medication Pick-Up

Student medication(s) must be picked up by dismissal time on June 12th.

Controlled medication(s) must be picked up by a parent/guardian on file.

Any medication not picked up will be discarded.

Please do not have students doordash things to the main office. Lunch is free to all students. If something is DoorDashed, it will be discarded. If a parent wants to bring their student food or drink, please know that we will get that to the student during their lunch. Any food or drink delivered outside of lunch time by parents will be held until the end of the day. Thank you so much for your help with this. It can create a large disruption to our students education process.

Please ensure you are pulling all the way forward when dropping off your student. Also, you are able to use any of the drop-off lanes. We have one large crosswalk in the middle that extends through the parking lot.

Please note that even if lunches are free from the state, it will still be necessary to complete the application.

Fall Sports practices begin on August 7th at BHS with events starting up on 8/17/23. Scranton Middle School Fall Sports (Boys & Girls Cross Country & Girls Volleyball) begin on 8/21/23 & 8/28/23 respectively.

With Fall sports starting around the corner we wanted to make you aware of an important change at the HighSchool level for game ticket prices and the purchasing of game tickets.

The K.L.A.A. voted to increase high school game ticket prices to $6.00. This is the first increase in league ticket prices for any league that Brighton has been a part of for over the last 30 years.

Additionally, as you are seeing across the nation, the league will move immediately to electronic tickets for High School events. Many of you who have had students participating over the last few years know that this format has been used by other KLAA schools, as well as those outside the league, and that all M.H.S.A.A. events are now electronic ticketing only. Electronic tickets allow for a safer transfer of money and there is a convenience factor for patrons at our events.

The process of purchasing electronic tickets has evolved in the last few years as well as the public's understanding and use of these platforms whether you are attending school sports, club sports, college and pro sports, concerts or any other ticketed events. We have used GoFan ticketing for the state tournaments we have hosted and the process overall has been very smooth as a whole.

We will have the ability at the gate to accept debit/cc cards now at our events but for your experience the easiest way to purchase and redeem your tickets will be to do so in advance of approaching the ticket booth or table and having them ready to show our ticket takers upon entering. Likewise you will now see signage at all BHS athletic events with the QR codes just as you have seen them at other schools in recent years and MHSAA tournament contests.

Ticket prices for Scranton Athletic events will remain at $3.00 for adults & $1.00 for students and will for this coming year remain as cash sales.

Also, Student, Individual and Family pass prices for BAS Athletic events will remain the same price and will be offered at both BHS & SMS registrations as they always have been.

Go Fan's website is GoFan.co and our page for home and away events at GoFan.co is: https://gofan.co/app/school/MI9899

Again, I hope this finds you and yours all doing well as we get ready to fire up another great year at BAS & Bulldog Athletics!

Make it a great and safe rest of your summer and as always....Go Dogs!

If your child will need medications available in the Scranton Main Office, please bring them in before the first day of the school year. Please note that all medications, including over-the-counter medications, must be accompanied by our medical form which includes a physician authorization for the medication to be administered at school.
