Happy “Start With Hello Week” to everyone.

This week focuses on creating a community where people feel open to reaching out to others and by stepping out of their comfort zones. Because this week is important, BHS students are encouraged to participate in the themes below.

• Monday – September 30: Students will begin the week by signing their name on the “Start With Hello” poster during their lunch periods.
• Tuesday – October 1: Students will write a short note to a friend to show appreciation for them.
• Wednesday – October 2: Wear green to show support.
• Thursday – October 3: Students will write notes to a teacher or trusted adult about why they appreciate them.
• Friday – October 4: Students will wear blue and gold to show off their Hurricane Pride.

Students who participate in “Start With Hello Week” will be rewarded with candy and glow bands from members of the Key Club. This is a great opportunity to become closer with the Hurricane Community, while also earning prizes for participating.

Please participate this week. It is not difficult to say “Hello” to someone new. 

In other news, many students last week from the class of 2028 went on a field trip to MAGNET, where they learned about manufacturing and the potential avenues for future employment. A big thank you to the BHS staff members who organized this, giving the freshmen class such a great and meaningful real-world experience.

Finally, parent-teacher conferences are slated for October 10, and the first quarter closes on October 17. Please turn in all work and continue working on organization/time management. This will be a huge help when it comes to keeping grades up and achieving higher levels of learning.

Here is the upcoming event calendar:

• October 1: Boys Soccer Senior Night vs. Lakeside
• October 1: Girls Soccer Senior Night vs. Lakeside
• October 7: Girls Volleyball Senior Night vs. Cuyahoga Heights
• October 10: College/Career Resource Fair and Senior Parent Financial Meeting
• October 11: Football, Marching Band, and Cheerleading Senior Night vs. Trinity

Have a wonderful rest of the week, Brooklyn!
