Our football team has so much to be proud of tonight. Although the score doesn't reflect the effort, courage and heart our men displayed, anyone that was there will tell you that was one amazing football game. We will be back in action next Friday against Milford at home. Come out and see these tough-as-nails athletes play some football. Let's Go Knights!!

Flanagan Game
Today is a very important and somber day in American History, a day that many adults remember vividly. However, as we recognize the 25th anniversary, many high school students have limited knowledge of that day. The tragic events of 9/11 serve as an opportunity to teach current BRHS students about modern history and about our country. Today, in Mrs. Flannell's Civics class, she talked through the major events from 9/11/2001 and the lasting impact it has had on our country to her students. We want to thank Mrs. Flannell for helping future generations remember and honor the memory of those lost on 9/11.

On Wednesday afternoon, Mrs. Ramirez and the Art Club spent some time together creating water marbled paper, a type of monoprinting. The paper will be used to make eye-catching locker name tag plates for Art Club. These locker signs help us recognize student involvement throughout the school and are made for each club, activity, and sport at BRHS. They also help to create a sense of pride for each of our students. A
