Let's share our appreciation for our fabulous teaching staff this week as we celebrate them for Teacher Appreciation Week.

The spring weather has arrived. With the warmer weather, please remind students to dress appropriately for school. Our dress code reminders can be found within this newsletter.

We wish all of our AP students the best as they take their exams these next few weeks!

In Community,

Mrs. Hummel

Thank you to the BCHS Black Excellence Program and the Muscle Queen Car club for organizing a wonderful family event last Saturday. There were so many amazing cars to check out, games to play, cool music and delicious food. They provided us an opportunity to come together as a community and share our passion for cars.

Morning examinees should report to the Small Gym no later than 8:15 for check-in.

Afternoon examinees should report to the Small Gym no later than 12:00 for check-in.

Please bring a snack/water for the break, along with your #2 pencils, blue or black regular ink pens, your AP labels, and your calculator (if applicable).

Absences will be excused ONLY for the duration of the exam. You must report to class after a morning exam and before an afternoon exam unless you are taking two exams in one day.

See Ms. Nancy in the Counseling Office if you have questions.

Senior prank season is upon us, so there are a couple things that we need to keep in mind. Under no circumstances should a prank damage any property, have the potential to hurt any people or animals, or be in violation of education code. A common prank involves squirt guns or water guns. These, along with any imitation fire arm, are not to be brought to school. Any pranks or ditch days are not school sponsored events, although the intentions may be for fun, there can be serious consequences.

Seniors who participate in graduation must meet Lodi USD graduation requirements and demonstrate good school behavior. Students suspended from school may be placed on a 45-day social probation. Students can also be placed on social probation for excessive tardies. This means students put on social probation within 45 school days of graduation and graduation practice will not be allowed to participate in the ceremony or other activities. (Board Policy 6145)

We are twenty-five days from graduation.

Please make sure to complete the following documents as soon as possible:

• Graduation Contract form

• 2024 Graduation & Diploma/Certificate Information form

• Graduation Field Trip Form

Classroom code is: kt6zdg2

Please fill out the form below if someone you are inviting to graduation will need ADA seating or any other kind of accommodation.

This is an incredible free resource for our students. It came available during COVID and appears to have turned into an ongoing project for California students. Please feel free to pass along to whomever you think might need or benefit from this. Sometimes parents aren’t able to help their kids with school work (many especially complain about math).
