The Independent Electrical Contractors of Greater St. Louis is proud to offer our first ever Pre-Apprenticeship aimed at 16-20 year olds to prepare them for the construction jobsite and get them “shovel ready”. It is a 6-week course (one night a week) where students sample the electrical trade, prepare their resume, practice interview skills, and prepare for the required math exam. Students who successfully complete the program will keep the tools they use for those 6 weeks. If you have sophomores-seniors that would benefit from a program like this, please pass along the information. See the attached flyer.


Due to technical difficulties with our Sub Bus, ALL students that are riding on Heather's route, Bus #2, will be returned to school. Please contact the office to let us know if you can pick up your children. If not, Bruce will take the students home after he returns from his route. We apologize for the inconvenience.
Congratulations to our February Students of the Month!

The 5/6 graders had a great time with Teach Mrs. Michele Day! Each group created their own lesson to teach Mrs. Michele. They did a great job working together to create and teach their lessons. Subjects taught were math, history, music, and science.




The Art Expressions class took a look at Rorschach’s Inkblot tests to figure out just how demented they really are. Then, they dabbled in making their own using string and acrylic paint, acrylic paint, and watercolors. Each medium turned out different and each student’s turned out different. What do you see when you look at the pictures?

Stay safe and warm.
TEACHER FOR A DAY!
At BHS seniors learned first hand what it takes to change the future one student at a time. After today they realize the hard work their teachers put in to help them learn and grow. Each teacher was randomly assigned a senior to "teach for the day." Students worked, learned, grew and most importantly laughed. Today was a really awesome day for all!
