On the October 2014 inservice day the Mid-High and BHS faculties met together. Part of the inservice was a "Gallery Walk" where teachers at each table generated Big Ideas which should be part of the new combined school and then everyone walked from list to list, putting stickers on what they choose as their most important ideas.
