Seniors, our final days at BHS are quickly approaching but not before we can experience some amazing activities and opportunities that our school has in-store.
The last day of classes for seniors is Tuesday, May 24 with finals being from May 25 through May 27; this is unless you are completing the new senior internship program (May 25-26), a program that gives seniors the option to job shadow in a specific field of interest for a potential future career.
This also ties into what the senior College and Career Planning class has been doing with recent mock interviews. Students choose a job that they would be interested in applying for, create a resume, and practice different interviewing techniques. The interview takes place with teachers and administrators for the desired job position.
Tonight at 6:00, seniors will be recognized for their hard work and dedication at the Academic Awards Ceremony. Make sure to check your school email for an invitation. Students who earned academic honors, department awards, local scholarships, and the Ohio Diploma with Honors will be honored this evening.
There are 10 days left until the event that so many have been waiting to arrive…Prom! This year, Prom will be held at FirstEnergy Stadium from 6:00-10:30 with the theme “A Night at the V.I.P Lounge”. Afterprom will then be held at Fun-n-Stuff. It truly will be a fun and memorable night!
Graduation is going to be a bittersweet experience for so many. A time to remember and celebrate our accomplishments throughout nearly 14 years of being in school. But before we do that, there are a few things that we have to do leading up to that day.
- June 1 is senior Chromebook turn-in and Cap and Gown distribution day.
- June 2 is commencement rehearsal day at the stadium followed by a senior cookout.
- June 4 is the big day…GRADUATION with senior check-in at 5:45 p.m. and the ceremony beginning at 7:00 p.m.
Senior year has been filled with many different ups and downs, new experiences, connections, memories, and realizations. We are going to miss so many teachers and peers as we all go on to the next journey in each of our lives.
Congratulations and best of luck to the class of 2022!
