Due to the change of rain and storms tonight, BHS graduation has been moved to 6:00 at Bulldog Stadium.


📢 ATTENTION SENIOR PARENTS, FAMILY AND FRIENDS!!! 📢 TIME CHANGE FOR Class of 2025 Graduation.
Due to impending inclement weather later this evening, we are moving graduation up to 6 PM at Bulldog Stadium. BHS graduation will now be at 6 PM tonight.


School's out, tongue's out! 🌞 Welcome to summer break, kids - may your days be as chill as this pup's!


BISD would like to notify everyone that we will have fireworks at the end of our graduation ceremony Friday evening to send our amazing graduates off with a BANG! The fireworks will be at the north end of the football stadium around 9:30PM. Even if you aren’t attending graduation, we would love for you to bring your kids out to enjoy the fireworks after graduation!


THURSDAY: Senior Parade. The line-up will start at 5 PM in the stadium parking lot. The parade will start at 6. The parade begins and ends at the stadium. Please see the attached map for the route! Feel free to share the map and get the community involved!
Thursday, immediately following the parade, we will have Senior Sunset at the stadium. We will be serving hot dogs, chips, water, and cookies. Those who signed up to bring food can drop their items off before the parade at the stadium. Volunteers will be available starting at 4:30.
FRIDAY: Project Graduation from 11:00 PM - 4:00 AM
To attend, students MUST complete the attached waiver, which has also been posted in their grade-level Google Classroom. The waiver is an agreement to the rules of Project Graduation and allows us to have a proper headcount before the event. You are encouraged to read the waiver with your student.
Project Graduation will be held at BHS in the gym and surrounding areas from 11 PM - 4 AM. Students arriving after 11:30 WILL NOT be permitted to enter. Students will only be allowed to leave with parental permission.
We have a fantastic night planned full of food, games, and of course, prizes!

You will meet other first-year cadets as well as upper-level cadets (sophomores, juniors, and seniors) who will help you navigate the months ahead.
