The Bobcat: February 2025

Seniors it is White Letter Award time! This is an award initiated by Bobcat Head Coaches, as a special incentive to participate in multiple, interscholastic sports. It acknowledges outstanding interscholastic athletics as well as club sport and activity participation. Please stop by the Activities Office and pick up paperwork to apply for this award. Due date to hand in is May 7, 2025.

The prom committee is seeking sophomore servers for this year's prom on April 26th. If you are a sophomore who is interested in helping decorate for prom, serve/work during prom, and help clean up after prom, please see Mrs. Lovseth in room 503 before or after school for more information.

Students please refrain from parking in the red parking spots designated for staff. Students continuing to park in staff parking will lose the right to park in the BHS parking lot. The two lined red spots in the Main Lot closest to the school are reserved for motorcycle and moped parking during warmer weather. Please be mindful when choosing a parking spot.

AP exam final payments are due to the Main Office by April 25th. The remaining cost is $59.00 per exam.

Message from the Tech Office: ALL student laptops in EVERY grade level MUST be turned in during your last class period on your last day of school at the end of the school year. There are no exceptions! BHS is required to send all student laptops back to Lenovo and all students will receive a new laptop in August when the new school year starts. Please make sure you have your charger and stylus with the laptop when you turn it in at the end of the school year. A required $25 fee (per item) must be submitted for any lost items. If you already know you have lost an item, please let the Tech Office know now and try to get it taken care of in advance. Thanks for your help!
