Our Transition to a 5-Day School Week in 2026/2027 School Year!
As we continue to prioritize the academic growth and well-being of our students, we want to share an important update regarding our district's schedule. After careful consideration and Governing Board approval, we will be transitioning back to a traditional 5-day school week beginning in the 2026/2027 school year.
We understand that consistency is vital for families planning their schedules. Please note that for the remainder of the current 2025/2026 school year, there will be no changes. We will finish this academic year on our existing 4-day schedule, with classes held Monday through Thursday.
What to Expect
We are dedicated to making this transition as smooth as possible for all families. Over the coming months, we will be working behind the scenes to adjust bus routes, meal services, and staffing schedules to support a full week of operations starting in August 2026.
We believe this move will strengthen our community and offer our students the robust support system they need to thrive. We are here to answer your questions and support you through this change. Thank you for your continued partnership in making our schools a welcoming place for everyone to learn and grow.

Happy 100th Day of School! 🧓👵💯🎉
On February 5th, we turned back the clock—teachers dressed (and acted!) like they were 100 years old, and the students had an absolute blast celebrating right along with them. The year is flying by… can you believe we’re already 100 days in? So much laughter, excitement, and fun celebrating 100 days of learning together!✨

New Clothing Closet Opens for Students Thanks to BHHS Legacy Foundation!
We are thrilled to announce a wonderful new resource for our students, made possible by the incredible generosity of the BHHS Legacy Foundation. The foundation has created and stocked a new clothing closet to support students and their families within our community.
This new resource is located at the Cartwright Family Center, where the foundation has transformed a classroom into a welcoming space for students. The closet is filled with a wide variety of essential items, including new school uniforms, backpacks, books, jackets, and many other supplies to help students succeed. This initiative directly supports our commitment to ensuring every child has what they need for a positive and productive school year.
To celebrate this significant contribution, we held a special ribbon-cutting ceremony at the center. We were honored to welcome several representatives from the BHHS Legacy Foundation, who have been instrumental in bringing this project to life. Their dedication to our students is truly inspiring.
We would also like to extend our gratitude to Assistant Superintendent of Education Services, Marco Ruiz, and Director of Safe Schools, Dr. Perez, for attending the ceremony and showing their support for this important community partnership.
The establishment of this clothing closet is a powerful example of what we can achieve when we work together. We are deeply grateful to the BHHS Legacy Foundation and everyone involved for their commitment to our students. This resource will have a lasting, positive impact on our school community for years to come.

💙 EMS Proudly Honors Our Veterans❤️ 🤍Our campus was thrilled to host our 3rd Annual Veteran Breakfast & Celebration to honor our community members that have served in the United States Armed Forces. The student led event was a huge success and we enjoyed having our community on campus! The Trevor Browne JROTC Color Guard presented the colors while Hannah Gomez sang a beautiful rendition of The Star Spangled Banner. Thank you to our beginning band students for the wonderful performance during breakfast. too! Our cheerleaders and the student council members engaged in conversations with our special guests. Many students submitted essays for the Patriotic Essay Contest and Camila shared hers from the podium. A special shout out to Jasmine, our ETV Morning News anchor for serving as the event emcee. The American Legion Riders made a grand entrance and meeting the bald eagle from Liberty Wildlife was a special experience this year. Thank you to our cafeteria manager, Yolanda, for cooking a delicious breakfast!
On November 11th, we will not have school. Please use your day off to celebrate and honor Veterans. Today, EMS sends a special thanks for your service and sacrifices to our great nation.
