BHS Families, it looks like we may finally be out of the woods from all the illnesses that plagued us during January and February. Now our goal is to get our attendance rate back to 95% and higher and to lower our chronic absenteeism rate back below 10%. Please work with your students to get them to school each day. We appreciate it.
