Prom & More

By: BHS News Staff

May 21, 2024

It is hard to believe that there are less than two weeks left in this school year. While we are all anticipating Summer freedom, there are some items to recap and preview. So, let us get right to it.

Over the weekend, students enjoyed Prom at Windows on the River. It was a major success this year with 145 students in attendance. The theme of this year’s prom was “Secret Garden,” and the weather cooperated very well, so students were able to take outside pictures, rain-free.

During the night of fun, food, and dancing, Brooklyn crowned this year’s King and Queen. Congratulations to Zachary Messeri and Desiree Gailes (pictured below).  

Once 10:00 p.m. rolled around, Prom came to end with the traditional senior circle; however, lifelong memories were built for all.

A big shout out to Mrs. Jackie Holko (Senior Class Advisor) for organizing such a wonderful evening. Her tireless efforts do not go unnoticed. Thank you, Mrs. Holko! 

In addition to Prom, another exciting event coming up is the Honor/Merit Roll field trip tomorrow (May 22). Grades 8 and 9 will go to the stadium from 8:00-11:00, and grades 10, 11, and 12 will go from 11:30-2:30. Students and teachers will walk to the stadium for field day-themed fun and lunch. 

Please make sure to turn in your signed permission slips to Mrs. Bader no later than today. You cannot attend if your final forms are not completed.

Finally, this serves as a reminder that finals are coming up next week. If you have a class that does not have a final and you have checked in with your teacher, you do not have to come in for that class. It is not an open campus, so you cannot leave and come back, but you can come in late or leave early, depending on your schedule. Below is the schedule for next week.
