 TRANSPORTATION ROUTINE FOR PICK-UP & DROP-OFF AT BHS A message to all preschool and high school parents regarding our parking and pick up procedures after school. Your cooperation and understanding is encouraged in adhering to the following suggestions to assure the safety of all our students. Any parent picking up a high school student at the front of the high school is requested to do so after the buses have left campus at 2:15pm. Waiting 10 minutes to enter campus would assist our bus drivers and student drivers. You may drive up to the front of the school and wait for your child once the buses have left the school. The morning drop off routine in the rear of the high school is not a problem given that the preschool traffic is from 7:45am - 8:00am. At the conclusion of the school day, the rear of the high school is primarily for the pickup of preschool students and special education students attending the high school. All high school students should be picked up at the front of the school. Preschool parents should not park in the area where the buses and vans are waiting for students. The safety of our children is our focus. Your cooperation with this plan would serve as a positive contribution to our school.

Back To School – September 2010
Whether it’s a student going off to college, high school or that first day in elementary school, the anxiety and excitement is only matched with a calendar that is a dramatic change from July and August. We hope that you find the transition from summer vacation mode to school season manageable. We hope that through our phone message system and accessing our website gpvillage.com/bhs will assist in keeping you informed as to dates and events on the school calendar.
Our faculty is energized and anxious to return to the classroom and begin the 10 month journey with their students. Our faculty brings personal experiences, current training in instruction and technology and a professional enthusiasm that will prepare our students for success in their future endeavors. I ask our school community to once again embrace the partnership of school, home and community.
As the final chapter is closed on the 2009/2010 school year, I want to commend the Class of 2010 for their leadership, academic excellence and contributions to our school. We wish them well on their future endeavors. They are well prepared to make a positive contribution to our community and society.
The return to school marks so many changes in our family and professional lives.
To members of the Class of 2011, 2012, & 2013, I ask that you return to BHS with and focus in meeting the expectations of our school. Establishing personal goals for your academic and social/emotional growth is extremely important in meeting the new challenges ahead. The sky is the limit and the support is plentiful at BHS. Apply our PRIDE Mission statement in everything you do and provide a living example for our Class of 2014. They will follow your leadership.
To members of the Class of 2014; you are soon to begin a journey that will provide meaningful life experiences and prepare you to meet the learning expectations for success. With guidance and support from our faculty and our student body you will have a wonderful freshmen year. Remember the importance of building partnerships, understand the importance of being respectful and responsible, chose to be involved in student life at BHS, appreciate and learn from the differences of those individuals you encounter and strive for educational excellence.
It is time to open up the doors of BHS to our students, faculty, parents and community members. Come and witness the power of teaching and learning and let us celebrate together, the outstanding accomplishments and efforts of the children of Braintree.
