When it comes time to write a letter of recommendation, here are some things to keep in mind:

• Provide a lot of time for your teachers (or others) to write the letters.

• Make a formal request.

• Supply the person who will be writing the recommendation with as much information as possible, including your contact information and any materials they may need to complete it (transcripts, essays, etc.).

• Don't forget to send a thank you letter to the person writing the recommendation for you!

If you are a male about to turn 18, or already 18, you need to register with the Selective Service. You can register on-line at www.sss.gov.

If you have a child entering 11th grade for the 2024-2025 school year, they will need to have a physical completed by his/her family doctor. We can accept a completed physical form up to one year prior to entering 11th grade. Letters were already sent to parents with the required form enclosed. If you did not receive one or have any further questions, please contact the school nurse. A sports physical that your child may have completed would also fulfill the necessary requirement. Please remember that sports physicals cannot be completed prior to June 1, 2024 and must use the PIAA Comprehensive Initial Pre-Participation Physical Evaluation form.

If you are interested in this opportunity, or just want to find out about us, please contact Sports Club president Chris Young at cyoung@bermudian.org.

https://988lifeline.org/

988 has been designated as the new three-digit dialing code that will route callers to the National Suicide Prevention Lifeline (now known as the 988 Suicide & Crisis Lifeline), and is now active across the United States.

When people call, text, or chat 988, they will be connected to trained counselors that are part of the existing Lifeline network. These trained counselors will listen, understand how their problems are affecting them, provide support, and connect them to resources if necessary.

The previous Lifeline phone number (1-800-273-8255) will always remain available to people in emotional distress or suicidal crisis.

The Lifeline’s network of over 200 crisis centers has been in operation since 2005, and has been proven to be effective. It’s the counselors at these local crisis centers who answer the contacts the Lifeline receives every day. Numerous studies have shown that callers feel less suicidal, less depressed, less overwhelmed and more hopeful after speaking with a Lifeline counselor.
