Happy New Year, Brooklyn! With 2024 in the books, we welcome in 2025 with the hope of a year full of opportunities and memories to be made.
To start off, next week, each grade will have their class meeting. During this time, December Students of the Month will be announced. In addition, students with either perfect or outstanding attendance will also be recognized for their efforts. Students who come to school on a regular basis succeed at a much higher rate than those who do not, so get to school!
Speaking of recognition, earlier during this school year, a small group of students were recognized for their strong leadership abilities and were chosen to be a part of the Hurricane Empowerment Leadership Group. These students will meet with Mr. Burton this Thursday, January 9, to discuss school culture, concerns, and any other ideas to improve the overall student experience here at BHS.
Amongst the chaos of this week (and the weather), all members of the Cast, Pit, and Crew have begun working with music rehearsals and building the set/props for the upcoming play, The Wizard of Oz. Before you know it, the curtain will be pulled.
Finally, remember that this semester is a clean slate for any students who struggled in the first semester. Check ProgressBook daily, organize your Google Drive, and manage your time wisely to begin the second half of this year in stellar fashion.
Here is the schedule for January:
- January 9: We Empower Student Leadership Meeting
- January 20: Martin Luther King, Jr. Day (No School)
- January 29: Chinese New Year
Have a terrific first week back, Brooklyn.
