On Sunday, September 23, Autumn officially begins, and during the Fall, there is a lot to do, mainly watching Cleveland Browns football.
Speaking of football, for the entire month of September, the Cleveland Browns “Stay in the Game” campaign has once again partnered with BHS and many other local schools to celebrate Attendance Awareness Month. The partnership with these schools has been successful by lowering the rate of absenteeism within schools.
The Cleveland Browns have also assigned BHS to conduct spirit weeks in addition to many other activities to win Browns gear and other goodies. After their season opening home game last Sunday, September 8, BHS students and staff had a week full of fun themes and celebrations.
For this week, get on your feet and send in a video of some amazing dance skills with a chance to win some Browns gear. Next week (September 23-27), doors, classrooms, and bulletin boards will be decorated to show our Browns spirit. For this activity, a vote will be conducted on the best decorations for a chance to win donuts.
After a fun and active month of supporting our Browns and striving for perfect attendance, there will be a recognition for the students who have managed to keep perfect attendance, and they will have another chance to win some more Browns gear.
In addition to Attendance Awareness Month, participants in the Hurricane Empowerment Project and staff welcomed in new students last Friday who joined BHS this school year by giving them some Brooklyn spirit wear and ice cream.
Additionally last Friday, BHS students and staff were all present during the “Meet the Court” assembly where our official Homecoming senior candidates were introduced to all of the students and staff. Student council also presented an amazing spirit week video. This assembly was a highlight of the day for many students. This Friday, our Homecoming Queen and King will be announced at the varsity football game followed by the dance on Saturday.
Good luck to all of the Homecoming Court.
It is currently spirit week, and the first two days have been a major success. Monday started with Prom versus Pajamas and continued with Anything but a Backpack Day, today. If you walk through the building, you will notice a lot of color as BHS students and Student Council spent a couple of hours after school last Friday decorating our halls to represent their class colors. The hallways turned out amazing, so well done to all of those involved in the decorations and to those currently bringing spirit to the school, each and every day. Keep it up!
Finally, here is the upcoming event calendar:
- September 16-20: Homecoming Spirit Week
- September 20: Homecoming Football Game (vs. Crestwood High School) & Hall of Fame Recognition
- September 21: Fall Fest at Memorial Park
- September 21: Homecoming Dance
Have a wonderful Homecoming week and dance, Brooklyn!
