Good Afternoon Jaguar Families,

This Saturday, at The Columbus Athenaeum we will be holding prom from 8:00 pm to 11:00 pm. We are excited to hold this event for our students and are looking forward to seeing them enjoy this tradition.

Next week we will be administering the Algebra and Geometry OST’s on Wednesday, April 27th. Next Wednesday we will be running a modified schedule to accommodate the four-hour testing window that is allotted for students to complete the exams.  During testing times, AP teachers will be running review sessions for non-testing students to help prepare AP students for the upcoming AP exams in May. On the scheduled testing days, we will be running a block schedule in the afternoon. (Click Here) Students will be required to attend periods in which they have academic classes.

Senior parents, as we continue to go paperless, please make sure to access Canvas and the  “Class of” pages to continue to get information pertaining to senior events. Please click the following link for information about senior activities and graduation.

Have a great weekend and Go Jags!!!

As we wrap up National Assistant Principal week, I would like to take an opportunity to thank Ms. Hueter, Mr. Hamilton and Mr. Walton for all their hard work this school year. It has been amazing working with this team. The care that they show for students, staff and parents is a big piece of what makes Bradley High School special. Thank you for all that you do!
