🍳🥛 National School Breakfast Week is here! 🥞🍓
From March 3-7, we’re celebrating the most important meal of the day! Check out each school’s page to see what they’re cooking up and how breakfast fuels success. 🍽️✨
Let’s nourish our kids for what’s next! 🚀 #NSBW25 #BHASD
The students in Señora Shoemaker's Spanish 1 and Spanish 3 classes held a food day on Monday.
Students in Spanish 1 created their own menus from a Spanish speaking country that they chose. They then chose a food from their menu to share with the class. We had fruit kabobs with tajin, enchiladas de pollo (chicken enchiladas), desayuno (breakfast), tres leches cake, alfajores (Peruvian cookies), and refrescos (sodas).
In Spanish 3, students used their knowledge of Spanish commands to write recetas (recipes). They used the former FCS kitchen to make empanadas, guacamole, frutillada (fruit smoothie drink), churros, and sopapilla cheesecake.
Everything was muy deliciosa!
🥗 We heard you… and here’s the exciting news! 🥗
Salad bars are just the beginning. Fresh, crisp lettuces, vibrant vegetables, and delicious toppings are now a staple at lunchtime. This is just the first step in our commitment to improving school meals with locally sourced, wholesome ingredients. Stay tuned as we will be releasing a survey soon to solicit ideas on how we can introduce even more nutritious choices that kids genuinely love!
And because March is National Nutrition Month, there’s no better time to celebrate fresh, healthy choices! 🌱
Parents & teachers, let's connect! 📚✏️ Join us for the PTC Meeting on Wednesday, March 5th, at 6:30 PM in the ES Library. Your voice matters, and we’d love to see you there! #BHASD #GoBullets

🐟 Trout in the Classroom Update! 🐟
Check out the latest from Mrs. Sheeler’s tank! Our trout have officially entered the fry stage, which means they’re swimming freely and starting to eat on their own. They’ve come a long way from their tiny alevin phase and are growing stronger every day!
Soon, these little swimmers will continue their journey toward the fingerling stage before being released into the wild. Stay tuned for more updates as they grow! 🌊🐠

🐸 Freshman Seminar Students Are “Frogging” the School! 🐸
As part of a hands-on lesson in hard and soft skills, Freshman Seminar students took on the challenge of folding origami frogs—a task that required patience, perseverance, and a growth mindset. Even when they struggled at first, they practiced, adjusted, and improved!
But the lesson didn’t stop there. To build communication skills, students crafted properly formatted emails to let a staff member know they had been frogged! That means some teachers will find a colorful origami frog placed in their classroom by the end of the week.
Through this experience, students connected their work to perseverance, resilience, attitude, focus, commitment, energy, and passion—all key traits for success in school and beyond!
Who’s getting frogged next? 🐸📩
