TEACHER FOR A DAY!
At BHS seniors learned first hand what it takes to change the future one student at a time. After today they realize the hard work their teachers put in to help them learn and grow. Each teacher was randomly assigned a senior to "teach for the day." Students worked, learned, grew and most importantly laughed. Today was a really awesome day for all!
