A Packed Turkey Month

By: BHS News Staff

November 12, 2024

The time is coming for overeating, relaxation, football, and Black Friday shopping. However, that time is not here yet.

As Thanksgiving break sneaks up on us, the days will go by quickly, especially with sunset around 5:40. Therefore, keep up on assignments and avoid missing work. No one wants a stressful Thanksgiving break. 

To start off, class meetings will occur at the beginning of next week, during which the students-of-the-month for October will be announced. The themes for this recognition are social relationships, leadership, and the willingness to help peers. If you are not picked for October, you may be picked for November, where the themes are compassion and respect for students and staff. Continue to be kind, and you may be chosen next.

Every Fall athlete should get their Fall banquet slips turned in as soon as possible, as they are due today! The banquet will be held next Wednesday, November 20. A turned-in slip will include dinner and more. Everyone, get your business casual attire ready for the Fall Sports Awards Banquet. 

Next, the sophomore class will take a field trip to the Polaris Career Center on November 15. This is a great chance for young students to see their future opportunities. 

Finally, on November 25, students who made the Honor or Merit Roll will have the opportunity to attend the first quarter PBIS Incentive Field Trip. It will be held at the Brooklyn Recreation Center, and students attending will go ice skating. Criteria include grades, attendance, and behavior. You can check if you made Honor or Merit Roll by looking at your report card, located on ProgressBook. 

Here is the upcoming event calendar for November:

  • November 12: Return Sports Awards Slips for Fall Banquet
  • November 15: Sophomore Field Trip to Polaris 
  • November 18-22: Violence Prevention Week
  • November 20: Fall Sports Awards Banquet
  • November 25: First Quarter PBIS Incentive Field Trip
  • November 27-December 1: Thanksgiving Break 

We hope everyone has a safe and productive week. The weather forecast looks cloudy and rainy, so prepare your jackets. 

Turkey day is just 16 days away!
