Volunteers for Senior Project Help Still Needed!

Mr. Sheil is still looking for volunteers to help out with the two Senior Project days coming up next week. It doesn't take long and would make a huge difference for the tech department! If you'd be interested, check out this link with all of the details and an opportunity to sign up for as many or as few spots as you would like throughout both days. To those members who have already signed up: check your emails in the next couple of days for updates on informational meetings. Thanks so much!

Relay for Life fundraiser and bake sale

Hello all, There is still time left to join Relay for Life, which is this Friday, May 20th, from 6-10pm, and raises money for the American Cancer Society. At the event, there will be food, games, music, prizes, and more! You can create or join a team here: http://bit.ly/1TtijGr.

In addition to getting hours for participating in the event, you can also get RWL or NHS hours if you help to set up before the event or clean up afterward. We will also be having a bake sale at the event to raise additional money for Relay for Life. You will receive half an hour of NHS chapter service hours for every tray of food you donate to the bake sale. You can drop off food to Ms. Woods in room 112, or you can bring it to the high school gymnasium anytime after 3:00pm on Friday, which is when we will be setting everything up.

Please feel free to contact either Kenzie Kearns (9956562@bedfordnhk12.net) or Ricky Salvatore (9956155@bedfordnhk12.net) if you have any questions or would like more information. Thank you very much, and we hope to see you there!

The BHS Relay for Life event is almost here!

Hi everyone! Our Relay for Life event here at BHS is almost here, so there are a couple of hour earning opportunities coming up: On May 10th, there will be a Coaches vs. Cancer event during our home track meet that we need kids' help running a Relay Table. This will be very similar to Week of Service. Shifts will be an hour long and will run from 3:30 to 6:30. On May 20th we have the actual Relay event! It will be taking place in the gym from 6:00p.m. to 10:00p.m. NHS will be having a team that you could join, or you and a group of friends could start your own team. There will be music, activities, and food, so it will be a really fun way to earn some hours and support cancer research! You can come for as little or as long as you want.

 Sign up here: http://bit.ly/1TtijGr

If you can't participate, but would still like to support the fight against cancer, you can donate. For every $25 you donate, you can earn 1 hour of service. Anyone who is interested in these opportunities and/or wants further information can contact Kenzie Kearns, Ricky Salvatore, Elise Gautheir, or Mrs. Woods (in the academic center).

Class of 2017... Welcome back; there's work to do.


  1. Does anybody want to lead a teacher appreciation event Tuesday? Typically NHS does something to make the BHS teachers' week special. The PTG has offered up Tuesday for us. My suggestion would be to do an early morning decoration of the three teacher offices, but if someone has a different surprise they'd like to pull off, I'll turn it over to you. I don't need to be part of the planning (I am a teacher after all), but let me know so I can tell the PTG that something is happening on Tuesday. If you need adult help, I can connect you to them.
  2. There's a mandatory meeting for Juniors this Thursday. If there are Seniors still getting these announcements, you can, of course, come for a meeting credit, but there will be nothing on the agenda concerning you. It's a good way to flag me down for signatures, however.
  3. Only about 8 weeks to go. Whoa!
