The final stretch is here, and we hope that everyone enjoyed their 10 days off and is ready to finish this school year in a strong and memorable fashion.
Today starts the Post Prom ticket sales for all who are interested. Post Prom this year is at Fun ‘n’ Stuff, and there will be fun activities with laser tag, go karts, mini golf, etc. Post Prom takes place on Friday and Saturday, May 22-23, from 12:00-4:00 a.m. Tickets cost $15 per and will be available during lunch hours until April 30. Remember, you do not have to attend Prom to be a part of Post Prom.
Next, Rome wasn’t built in a day, and neither was the music department. As a result of the auditorium renovations, the upcoming “An Evening With” concert will take place at the newly-renovated Brooklyn Early Childhood Center on April 24. It will feature the Singing Storm, the Brooklyn Jazz Ensemble, and also art from the National Art Honor Society. The concert will begin at 7:00. Showing up before the start time is recommended as this event is usually thoroughly-attended.
Moving along, the club under the spotlight this week isn’t really a club but more of an extracurricular class. The BHS band is practicing for their annual Spring concert, which is also their final performance of the year. However, this year’s concert is going to be a little different than prior concerts since the auditorium and band wing are currently being remodeled. This year’s concert will be held in the BHS Gymnasium on May 7. If you are interested in joining the band next year, please see Mr. Sullivan for more information.
Onto something that all students dread for the year: OSTs. Students are going to be finishing up their OSTs throughout the month of April for their core classes. Test-takers, make sure to be prepared by getting a good night of sleep, eating a good breakfast, and making sure that your chromebook is charged. Most importantly, believe in yourself. Good luck to all students.

Below is the upcoming OST schedule.
- History: April 15
- Government: April 16
- Biology: April 21
- Science 8: April 23
- Algebra I: April 28 & 30
- Math 8: April 28 & 30
- Geometry: April 29
A special congratulations to junior Ben Denovchek for successfully predicting the winner of Mr. Holko’s annual March Madness Challenge: The Michigan Wolverines. With this achievement, he will be granted a gift card to a restaurant of his choosing.

Finally, there are only 36 days left until Summertime. Seniors, you only have 26 days remaining and that is if you are required to take finals. In the meantime, get those post-graduation plans set in stone. Finish strong!

- April 24: An Evening With (Jazz & Art)
- April 25: Polaris Field Trip
