The show runs through the 15th in the BMHS Auditorium at 7 pm every evening. We can't wait to see you there!

What an incredible opportunity! Our talented high school singers spent some time at the Baldwin Wallace Conservatory of Music, participating in the second annual BachSings Honors Choir event. They dove deep into the Baroque style, exploring the beauty and precision of music by composers like Bach, Vivaldi and Aleotti. From intricate harmonies to expressive phrasing, they gained hands-on experience in this timeless era of vocal music.

We’re so proud of their hard work, dedication, and artistry — congratulations to all the students representing our school with such grace and musical excellence! Mia Del Rio, Zoey Peer, Silas Barker, Jonah Riberdy, Alex Johncock, Eliana Rodriguez, and Miss Novak

Mrs. Goersmeyer’s Child Development students wrapped up two fun fall projects!
For the first, they explored early literacy by choosing a children’s book or famous person to inspire their Pumpkin Project — painted pumpkins and all! Winners are pictured with their creations.
Next, they learned about lesson planning and creativity on a budget by designing kid-friendly costumes and preschool lessons to match.

Great job Titans!

Ms. Lash, Miss Larsen and 17 of our Key Club students attended the Fall Rally for Key Club at Scene 75 in Columbus, Oh. Almost 400 students from around the state joined. We took part in a service project that produced 22, 000 meals, in which each package makes a meal for six people. These meals are nutrition heavy and only need hot water added to be ready to eat. Students also participated in leadership and team building activities. From the sleepy group in the morning (they left before dark)to the excited students on the way home, fun and service was enjoyed by all on a Sunday! This group has gone above and beyond this year in service endeavors.

We have an upcoming fundraiser at Boss Chick n Beer on Monday, November 17th. Please support this to help support our students that are doing so much for our community!
