BHS Happenings
BHS Happenings
During the first week of school after the holiday break, our high school band, choir, and orchestra students wasted no time, jumping into action to prepare for their upcoming concerts and large ensemble contests in February and March. These talented musicians are already dedicating countless hours to rehearsals, perfecting challenging pieces of music, and fine-tuning their performance skills to ensure their performances are polished and professional. This level of commitment not only reflects their passion for music but also the discipline and teamwork required to succeed.
Some truly impressive pieces of art created by our talented students are proudly displayed in the Arts Entrance trophy cabinet. These works reflect the creativity, dedication, and countless hours of effort our art students have invested. We encourage everyone to take a moment to admire this stunning collection. We are incredibly proud of their accomplishments.
