Friday Message
Hello Bobcat Community,
As we enter into the mid-quarter point, please review your child's grades and reach out to the teacher(s) if necessary. We are also asking teachers to reach out to parents if there are any concerns about academic progress. The school year continues to be filled with positivity and focus on success. We thank you for your efforts in supporting the best outcome for students and their thriving future.

AFJROTC Continues to Shine
BHS’ AFJROTC has been hard at work preparing for the 9/11 Ceremony, Mission BBQ Color Guard, and football filming! The cadets have been working on setting up before the games and filming live footage for the players and coaches to review. The senior cadets had the chance to help with VIP Parking, assuring that everyone is where they need to be, and minimizing confusion. Unit VA-20061's Color Guard will also be participating at the football game, hoping to show off some of the class's skill. Color Guard is one of the many LDRs (Leadership Development Requirement) offered in the course, where cadets can learn and highlight skills in competitions or displays, so make sure to keep an eye out for the Color Guard!
