Bonners Ferry High School
Dear Parents and Students,
I would like to welcome you to the start of an
exciting year at Bonners Ferry High School!
Throughout the year it will be our goal to make
our school a place where students receive a
quality education that will prepare them for
anything they want to do in life.
When students are given the tools and support
needed to be successful; they will have the
confidence to achieve their goals. We will
strive to provide classes that are relevant,
meaningful, and challenging. It is very
important to me that each and every student is
safe and has a sense of belonging.
Although our focus is academics, I believe in
the whole educational experience. There are many
opportunities for student involvement at the
high school level: sports, cheerleading, dance,
drama, robotics, student council, to name a few.
For a complete list, please visit our website:
www.bcsd101.com
and go to the Bonners Ferry High School site or
review our student handbook.
Please note the new attendance policy.
Attendance is a high priority because when a
student is absent they are missing valuable time
in the classroom. Please take a few moments to
review the student handbook as well. It is
online and your student will be given a copy.
The handbook contains board policies that govern
our school.
The following dates are for the students to pick
up schedules, locker assignments, and pay fines.
Please return all of the needed paperwork.
Schedules will not be handed out before school
if there are outstanding fines or paperwork is
not completed.
Seniors – August 27
Juniors/Sophomores – August 28
Freshman Orientation – August 29 (8 a.m. – noon)
Please note that there is a new bell schedule:
school will commence at 7:50 a.m. (first bell at
7:45).
All of the Bonners Ferry High School staff
agrees wholeheartedly with the Spence Rogers
philosophy when he states: “Our kids are worth
whatever it takes.”
With the support of parents and the community we
will make this a great year. I am looking
forward to serving as your principal and
encourage you to stop by and say hello. If you
have any questions or concerns, please don’t
hesitate to call or come in. |
