We appreciate your support in returning these quickly back to BHS. Counseling Office: Thank you so much for your patience as our counselors are getting though all of your scheduling requests, questions, and emails. Please be assured that they are diligently working though all of these and will get to yours soon. Breakfast and Lunch: Until December 1st, basic lunch and breakfast is free for all students. Please bring extra money for our ala carte line and to purchase extra food. We will still be doing meals for pick up for our online students as well. Please see the attached document for further details about ordering this food ahead of time. Attendance Line: if your student is ever going to be absent from school, please call the attendance line (248-627-1825) 24 hours a day to excuse their absence. If your student is sick, it would be appreciated if you describe their sickness including symptoms that they are experiencing. Chrome Books: Every student will be issued a chrome book this school year. For those face-to-face students that have not been issued one yet, they will receive it this Thursday and Friday during their 1st and 4th hour classes. Brandon Learn From Home students were already issued these last week. Back to School Night: *Change of Date* Back to School Night will be held virtually on Tuesday, September 22nd from 6:00 – 7:30.
