BHS Happenings

We are already approaching Progress Reports for Quarter 3. Progress Reports will be available on your PowerSchool Parent Portal on Monday, March 4th, just in time for Parent Teacher Conferences. Please make sure you are logging into your Parent Portal account to review your child's grades and attendance. March Parent Teacher Conferences will be held on March 6-7, 2024 and afternoon and evening sessions will be available. You will need to schedule an appointment with your child's teacher(s) by logging onto My Conference Time. Instructions on how to schedule conferences can be found below.

As we conclude our winter sports seasons, we encourage all of our students to come out for a spring sport. BHS will offer softball, baseball, tennis and track this spring. Joining a sports team is a great way to get involved and we also have a bunch of clubs which are always looking for new members. Take a chance and get involved this spring!
