The Green & White: This Week at BMHS May 29

Meet the Top Ten

2017 Top Ten

Last Wednesday, we hosted our annual Honors' Banquet to recognize the top ten students in the graduating class and the teachers they identified as having the most significant impact during their academic career. Each student had the opportunity to speak about their teacher and in turn their teacher spoke about the impact the student had on them. While each story was unique, common themes emerged throughout the evening. The students spoke about how each teacher helped cultivate a love of their subject, challenged them to work harder, and as Michael Orlando so aptly put it, "help us find our voice."

Senior Week

The Class of 2017 just completed their final exams and received their caps and gowns for our Graduation Commencement on June 6. However, before we meet at the Tsongas Arena, there are a few other rituals that need to be completed.

Senior Prank

The Class of 2017 executed the senior prank flawlessly this past Thursday, turning our cafeteria into a Bahama beach vacation. They successfully trucked in the sand, beach chairs, volleyball nets, and hula skirts to enjoy their last lunch in the "pit."

Class Trip

The senior class trip is a Boston Harbor cruise and will take place on Monday, June 5. Busses will be departing BMHS at 10 a.m. and will return at approximately 4:30 p.m.

Graduation

Graduation will take place on Tuesday, June 6 at the Tsongas Arena in Lowell. The event will begin at 6:30 p.m. and doors will open at 5:00 p.m.

The Blast

Members of the Class of 2017 are invited back to BMHS after graduation for one last night. The Billerica Blast is an all night event for the graduating seniors to enjoy a safe, substance free evening. Refreshments and entertainment will be available throughout the night culminating with coffee and donuts before we say one final good-bye at 5 a.m.

MCAS Science

Freshmen will be taking the MCAS STE (Science, Technology, and Engineering) Assessment on Monday, June 5 and Tuesday, June 6. The freshmen will be taking the Biology assessment, while some transfer students may be taking the Chemistry, or Physics assessment. The test is untimed, but most students will have completed the testing by 10:30 a.m. each day. Every year our students do very well on the STE assessment. Please encourage/remind your student to put forth their best effort. MCAS Science became a graduation requirement beginning with the Class of 2016.
