*1. Do you miss being able to walk through or hang out in the Civic Center park?  Have you ever taken a closer look at the Peace Wall in the park?  Well lucky for you--the park will re-open at lunch this Friday!  All students are welcome to come to the park at lunch this Friday, March 30th for a brief Month of Service closing ceremony, to look at new tiles made by BHS students for the wall, and to simply enjoy the park.  Be there!

The deadline for election positions - that’s ASB President, Vice-President, Chief of Service, Chief of Social Activities, Class President and Vice President, BSEP or SSC reps - has been EXTENDED to April 12. That’s right you now have until Thursday after the break to get your application in for any ELECTED position in Leadership.

 

3. Attention all students who have elevator keys, please return them to Ruby Taylor in the admin office, if you no longer need them.

 

4. It's true - there really is a competition for the class with the best attendance, and the winner will really get a whole theater rented out to them to watch a movie together!

If you have, it’s time to vote for your favorite in the Young Adult Category of the California Young reader medal contest.  See Ms. G in the library to get your ballot.  Deadline is Friday, so be sure to vote by then!!
