Students, please look on Skyward at your second semester schedule. Now is the time to make sure that there are no errors. If you see something that doesn't look right, please contact Mrs. Whitehouse or Mrs. Coy.
If any students are considering adding Art Appreciation to their schedule, 3rd hour next semester, they must see Mrs. Whitehouse this week because of Parkland paperwork.

Winners from each day’s contest will win a “Candy Gram” prize, chosen each day at lunch by secret voters. Also, Student Council will award Christmas cookies, during lunch on Tuesday, December 18, to the class who participates the most for the entire week. BRHS employees are part of the challenge which means they can win the basket of cookies, if they have the highest percentage of participation for the week.
