Congrats BHS DECA!

At the 2025 DECA International Career Development Conference (ICDC) in Orlando, BHS DECA made it's mark in a BIG way!


Seniors, Maya and Diya Singh earned a Top 10 spot in the world in the Hospitality & Tourism Team Decision Making event! After advancing to the finals, they graced the international stage as one of the top-performing teams in their category. This is a first-time achievement for the BHS chapter and a testament to years of dedication, growth, and leadership. Please join us in congratulating these two phenomenal young women on ending their DECA journey as champions!


Also, a huge shoutout to sophomores Claire Wei and Priscilla Park, who competed at ICDC for the very first time. They represented BHS with pride, and are already planning their comeback for 2026!

Community Service Hours

Community Service hours are verified weekly/bi weekly at the end of each week.

New requests for access to MobileServe are also processed once a week, usually on Fridays.

If you submitted a form and used the app last year, you have an active account and DO NOT need to submit another form. If you forgot your password please use the password recovery on the app.

Student Activities & Fundraisers

Shoe Drive for Sophomore DI Team

The sophomore Destination Imagination team, the French Fry Fridays, is facilitating a shoe drive to raise funds for their trip to the DI Global Finals Competition 2025. Please consider bringing in new or used shoes to support this team! There is a box near the student drop off where you can donate any kind of shoe. The team asks that you do not bring shoes with holes, as these donations will be given to and worn by people in need. Thank you for supporting the French Fry Fridays!

Seasonal Allergies

As most of you know, spring allergy season is upon us and I wanted to remind you to be proactive about your children's allergies. Please have them take their prescribed allergy medication before school, so they will be comfortable for the duration of the school day. Depending on the severity of the pollen allergy, those with seasonal allergies can feel pretty miserable and allergy symptoms can have a significant impact on learning. Please reach out to me if you have any questions.


Thank you.

- Annmarie Vaughan
