Merry Christmas, Everyone!
As we enter into Christmas Holidays, we take time to reflect on all of the
blessings we have received in 2015. We hope that everyone has a chance to
spend time with those they cherish the most over the break! When we return
in January, it will be a busy time to wrap up our first semester, as students head
in to their final exams!
Take time to reflect on your year, get lots of rest, because we know that 2016
is going to be a wonderfully busy year at BCHS.
We wish you the best during the holidays!
Sincerely,
Corey Baker—Principal
Jacey Burkholder—Assistant Principal

The World of Work & Citizenship
Math 10-4 and 20-4 students completed a financial
program with Mrs. Etter and Jonathan Berube from
Lakeland Credit Union. After learning all sorts of
important banking information we were able to take a
tour of the new facility here in Bonnyville and ask
questions to many different employees in the
building. Students found this experience very rewarding
and 88% of them felt they knew more about banking and
finance after having went through this program.
Lifelong Learning

industrial revolution and
assembly line?
