Next Wednesday, April 24, we will administer the Algebra 1 and Geometry OSTs. Bradley High School will run on a modified schedule to accommodate the testing window allotted for students to complete the exams. For additional information about ELA II and Biology make-ups on Monday as well as testing on Wednesday, please see the following document. Spring 2024 Testing Information

On April 30th, Bradley High School will host a Career, College, and Military Expo for graduating seniors ready to enter the workforce or continue into higher education and for juniors who want to learn more to make informed decisions about their futures. This event is targeted toward current juniors and graduating seniors.

Finally, the Hilliard Bradley Theater presents Sponge Bob The Musical; the show will run on April 19th and 20th. The performance on Friday will begin at 7:00, and Saturday’s performances will begin at 2:00 and  7:00 pm. Tickets can be purchased through Local Level.

Good Afternoon,

It was a great week at Bradley High School. I would like to begin by congratulating the Bradley Winter Guard, under the direction of Ms. Watts, who completed their season last Saturday by capturing the Mid East Performance Association Scholastic Regional A Class Championship at the Nutter Center. The HBWG placed first out of 13 groups and, for the first time at championships, was unanimously 1st among all five judges. This is the Bradley Winter Guard’s 3rd MEPA championship (2019, 2023, 2024). Congratulations, Audrey Ahrens, Catherine Dorrian, Aly Galore, Natalie Huot, Emily Jefferson, Bex Lawrence, Tiffany Mam, Sophia Manring, Hailey Phillips, Grace Savage, Laura Togni and Emily Yu.

Next week, we will celebrate military appreciation week with a Purple Up Spirit week. We will have daily Spirit themes and host our Second Annual Muffins and Military event next Friday, April 19th. We will start at 7:45 a.m. and have various speakers until 10:15 a.m.

Next Tuesday, we will call the senior class to the gym for cap and gown pick-up. This will be the last large group meeting for seniors before we begin the pre-graduation celebrations in May.

We will administer the US History, Government, and Biology Ohio State Tests next Wednesday, April 17th. Please click on this link for more information. Spring 2024 OST Communication.

Next Friday and Saturday, the Hilliard Bradley Theater presents Sponge Bob The Musical; the show will run on April 19th and 20th. The performance on Friday will begin at 7:00pm, and Saturday’s performances will begin at 2:00 and  7:00 pm. Tickets can be purchased through Local Level. The link is on our website at www.bradleytheater.com

Finally, ​​our students and staff started counting down until the last day of school. We are so close! We encourage you to keep up the good work of having your child in school every day. Already, you have helped us stay on track for our year-end attendance goal.  So far this year, we have seen a drop in the percentage of students missing ten or more days from 57% to 52%! The number of students who are chronically absent this year is just 39%. We still have work to do, but we are grateful for your partnership in prioritizing school.

I hope everyone can spend some time with friends and family this weekend. Go Jags!

Good Afternoon Jaguar Families,

I would like to begin by thanking everyone that had a chance to come out and support our band and choir performances this week. It was great to see so many of our families support the hard work of our talented students.

This week, over 400 of our Junior students took the SAT exam on Wednesday. We are excited to see the results and celebrate our students’ growth.

Good luck to Audrey Slivka, who will compete in the OHSAA State Wrestling Championships at The Schott this weekend. The girl’s bowling team will be competing in the OHSAA bowling state championship on Saturday for the first time in school history. Good luck: Kay Butcher, Cam Gale, Rachel Johnson, Madison Kaylor, Morgan Kaylor and Maddy Lawrence. The competition begins at 10:00 am at HP Lanes. Boys basketball will be competing in the district semifinals against Westerville Central at Ohio Dominican University beginning at 11:00 am. We look forward to seeing you at one or more of these events this weekend.

Finally, as we conclude the third quarter, please review your child’s grades and discuss strengths and areas for improvement to set goals for the fourth quarter. Take time to celebrate your child’s successes and continue to work with their respective teachers to achieve any improvement that needs to be made.

Have a great weekend, and Go Jags!!!
