This Friday will be an early release for High School students only. BACC students will be excused as long as they attend Burr Oak until the release time of 2:00. If BACC students do not return they will not get a release from BACC. Middle School and Elementary stay until 3:07.
Due to the Department of Health recommendation regarding evening activities at schools, the football game time has been moved. Therefore, we will be shifting our day to accommodate the high school homecoming activities.
NO CHANGES for ELEMENTARY. The elementary schedule will remain the same.
The middle school will attend the pep assembly which will begin right after lunch. They will come back from recess, check in for attendance, then go to the gymnasium. (1:15). After the pep assembly at approximately 2/2:10 the middle school students will go to their regularly scheduled class. Release at regular time.
The high school:
BACC will be school released for the afternoon. It is expected that BACC students will go to Mr. Greene after third hour and stay there and take lunch with the rest of the high school. If they are in attendance for school, then it is also expected that they come back after lunch for the pep assembly. Attendance will be taken and those that do NOT come back will not be school released from BACC. .
All high school students will be released after the pep assembly, but those riding the bus will have to wait for the regular bus time to go home. Encourage them to find a ride or they will need a room to hang out in.
The parade will be at 4 pm.
In Michigan weather can be so unpredictable. Please make sure to dress your child in layers for those cool fall mornings and warm afternoons.
On Wednesday September 25th we will have a volleyball game at 6:30 between football and volleyball players, and class wars. This is a free event for all!
Due to the mosquito virus going around, we have moved the Varsity Football game up to 5:30 p.m. Friday night September 20th. Please plan accordingly.
Thank you!
