The BEAR BUZZ

Congratulations to all of the Golden Bears who earned an Academic Pin. Based on your Report Card (weighted) GPA, those students who earned a 3.0 of better will receive a 2025 BB Jersey pin on Wednesday in their 3rd Period. We also honor the 250 students who were able to complete the challenging task of improving their GPA by 0.5 or more since Progress Report.

In addition, on Wednesday all of those student were hit that 4.0 mark will receive an invitation to Thursday's Principal's Honor Roll.

We're dolling out the academic recognition this week. Congrats to the people!

It's a tradition here at TV. Every February will distribute our matchmaking questionnaire with the purpose of giving you a change to be paired up with a fellow Golden Bear or 40. It's a fun activity that is even more fun when more students participate. All you have to do is click on the link, answer the 35 questions and you'll receive your results mid-February. You have until Tuesday, January 28 to complete the questionnaire.

You'll find questions like: "How messy is your bedroom? What would you do with $1 million? What's your ideal vacation?"

We see you, Bears! You love to dance! You love to get dressed up.

This is your chance.

Let's go, Bears!
