Ready for an Amazing Year? We Are! |
Finalized student schedules will be viewable in Infinite Campus on Friday, August 7th at 4 p.m. Counselors will be available on August 10th and 11th to assist students if their schedules need to be adjusted due to errors. The student must address all schedule concerns in person during the scheduled time for their grade level. Please read the schedule change guidelines carefully before coming in to meet with a counselor, as changes are only made under specific circumstances. If the request qualifies, you'll find the schedule change dates and times listed below.
Schedule changes will be permitted ONLY for the following reasons: |
- If you have less than five classes each semester for Seniors/Juniors or less than six classes for Sophomores/Freshmen. Most students will have a free period.
- If you are missing a required course in error. For example, you have World History in 1st Semester but not 2nd Semester.
-
If you would like to drop a course and have enough credits to do so.
- If you took a course during the summer and need to adjust your current courses.
|
Counselors will not adjust schedules to accommodate specific off periods, class period changes, teacher preference or lunch. If you would like to be a student assistant, please stop by the Counseling Office, room 809, for the necessary paperwork. |
Times to meet with a Counselor: |
- Seniors - August 10th, 9-11 a.m.
- Juniors - August 10th, 1-3 p.m.
- Sophomores - August 11th, 9-11 a.m.
- Freshmen-August 11th, 1-3 p.m.
- Location: Counseling Office, enter at the Main Office
|
-
The last day to fill an open period with a course (based on space available) is August 17th.
- Clean drops will be allowed until September 2nd. (As long as the student has the minimum required number of classes).
- Classes dropped between September 3rd and September 25th will appear as WP (Withdraw Pass) or WF (Withdraw Fail) on the transcript.

When you receive them, please follow these instructions to begin seeing updates from your schools and communicating directly with your teachers via the app.
The app features a live feed of news and updates, the ability to receive push notifications, and 2-way communication between teachers, coaches and parents. Read more: Download the New BVSD App: All school updates in one place
Download the app for free on Google Play or Apple App Store. Download for iPhone | Download for Android
Learn more about how to sign in on the BVSD.org/app webpage. |
We do not have a supply list. When students meet with teachers they will inform students what they will need for each class. There are backpacks and school supplies available in the Main Office or BHS Pantry (Library) for students in need. |
- Our school hours are 8:35 a.m. to 3:55 p.m. and students have access to the building from 8:15 a.m. to 4:15 p.m. every day EXCEPT Wednesdays.
- On Wednesdays, we have a late start with classes beginning at 9:35 a.m. Student access is from 9:15 a.m. to 4:15 p.m.

Breakfast is served after the first period of each day. Times are published at the bottom of the bell schedule, linked above. Lunch will be during Period 4 on Mon, Tues and Fri with a Common Lunch on Wed and Thurs. Lunch is not a separate class period. It is based on where your 4th period class is located. North classrooms will have lunch at the beginning of the period; South classrooms will have lunch at the end of the period.
Breakfast and lunch are FREE for BVSD students. Students can receive a breakfast, along with one lunch entree (with unlimited salad/fruit to accompany the entree) for free each day. Even though lunch is free, it is still very important that families complete the Free & Reduced Price School Meal application, as it waives and reduces fees (including athletics/activities and school technology fees) district-wide for many families, can impact transportation for some families, and impacts important funding for individual schools. It also qualifies some families for a 50% reduction in Lifelong Learning tuition, and waived tuition for BVSD Online classes (excluding the $50 registration fee). Child Care families will continue to apply for financial assistance through the Child Care Assistance Program (CCAP).

Throughout the school year, all school activities and athletic events are added to the calendar on ARBITER. Holidays, breaks and no school days are on the BVSD calendar. |

JAM Donation - Just After Midnight is our after-prom event for Seniors, Juniors and their guests. This event is an essential part of our school to support our students making positive decisions on Prom night. We encourage you to get involved - even at the freshman level.
