The Bellevue High School (BHS) staff recognizes that we have many families that come from different backgrounds. Some families may not be familiar with the American school system or speak English fluently. In an effort to serve more of our families, BHS offers multi-language Principal Coffee meetings. These meetings are well attended and include topics such as successful college preparation, developing leadership skills through school clubs and sports etc. You will also meet school staff that work with your students (counselors, vice principal, etc.).
In this 1st MLPC of 2019-2020 school year, Dr. Vic Anderson will introduce new staff, counselors and support staff. Please join us, meet other parents and learn important information about high school.
The principal does the presentation in English followed by
interpretation in different languages. Interpreters for Mandarin, Korean, Mandarin, Japanese languages will be available.

Finally, all three teams played Newport on Thursday. They dominated, with JVC winning 5-0, JV 8-0, with hat tricks from Sophomores Maeva Hoffman and Giselle Lachini. 18 minutes into the Varsity game, all playing had to be ceased until further notice due to extreme weather conditions, and eventually the game got called off.
