Robotics
Any students who are on the Bionic Broncos, Classical Engineers or Loose Screws robotics teams that would like to help decorate the showcase in preparation for our competition this weekend, please bring in pictures, trophies and materials to decorate tomorrow and Wednesday.  See Mrs Hemry before school starts for a homeroom pass or if you have any questions.

Good Luck at the state competition this weekend!

NJHS
There will be an NJHS meeting on Wednesday Jan 7th during 4a and 4b in the choir room.  If that is your lunch time please bring your lunch with you.

Juggling Club
Here's an opportunity for fun while developing a skill to impress your friends.  Join the juggling club! The juggling club will meet beginning this Friday January 9, 2015 from 2:30-3:30.  Beginners to advanced jugglers are welcome. You can learn to juggle a basic 3 ball pattern or learn more advanced tricks. You can also learn to juggle rings, clubs, Chinese yo-yo, cup speed stacking and angel sticks.  Or, you can learn to pass with a friend.  Maybe just have fun trying.  If interested, see Mr Allison in room 124 or just show up this Friday. Be sure to arrange a ride home for 3:30.

Bus Depot
Recently we are having two issues in the Bus Depot with our Junior High Students.  Please remember to get on your buses as soon as possible.  Buses need to be on time for their elementary routes.  Too many students are "hanging out" in the center of the bus depot.  Also Junior High Students need to refrain from demonstrating public displays of affection in the depot (kissing).

Chromebooks
6th and 7th grade students - We have received notice that Chromebooks have been seen unattended during after school sporting practices/events. Please remember that you can return to your locker after practice to retrieve your Chromebook. Chromebooks should never be left unattended, in the gymnasium, or under a tree. It is important to remember that each student with a Chromebook signed an agreement at the beginning of the school year that states...
I will be responsible for my Chromebook at all times.
My Chromebook will never be left unattended
I will store my Chromebook in my secured locker at BJHS while at sports practices or after school activities

Bus Notes
Reminder to all students - Bus notes to ride another bus home after school MUST be stamped in the office BEFORE the end of sixth hour.

Happy Birthday Today
