BHS Happenings

We are so proud of all of our students that made the honor roll for Quarter 2! BHS will be celebrating all of these students at our Quarter 2 Honor Roll Ceremony on March 4th at 6:00 p.m. in the BHS Auditorium. If your student made the honor roll, please be on the look out for your invitation to the ceremony in the mail. Pizza and refreshments will be served following the ceremony in the Auditorium. Congratulations again to all of our students who made the honor roll and we look forward to even more students making it during the third quarter!

Senior Parents! If you have not already completed the FAFSA for next year, please make sure to set some time aside to complete this ASAP. All students planning on going to a two or four year college, should complete the FAFSA to see what financial aid they are eligible for. To complete the FAFSA, please visit this website, https://studentaid.gov/ and complete the necessary information. Those who complete the FAFSA early can receive more aid from some colleges and universities, who have additional school based aid on a first come, first serve basis.

Summer is quickly approaching and summer opportunities are available for students in a variety of different interests. Make sure you check out the list of summer programs available and apply before it is too late. You can find the spreadsheet of programs below for your review.

All seniors planning on attending a two or four year college should have already applied for financial aid. If you have not, please make time to do so ASAP. You can apply by clicking on the button below (FAFSA). Parents and students will need a FAFSA ID to apply, so please make sure that one is created for both of you before starting. The FAFSA needs to be completed before any college will offer you a financial aid package.
