Financial Aid Night

We invite you to the BBHHS auditorium on Monday, Dec. 16th at 7:00 PM for our annual Financial Aid Night, presented by Cami Barber from Kent State University Financial Services. While this session is most valuable to families of the Class of '25 the session is open to any parent wanting to learn more about the financial aid process.


This informative session will cover important topics, including:

  • The revamped FAFSA (Free Application for Federal Student Aid)
  • Scholarships, loans, and grants
  • Key information for financing your student’s college education


After the general presentation, there will be an opportunity for a Q&A where you can ask specific questions about the financial aid process.


For those who cannot attend in person, a livestream option will be available. A link will be provided on the morning of the event and linked to our district Google calendar. We hope you had a wonderful Thanksgiving and look forward to seeing you on the 16th!

Reminder: Extended Colony 55-Minute Schedule 12/10

BBHHS will conduct a “55 Minute Extended Colony Bell Schedule” on Tuesday, 12/10/2024. During this extended Colony Period, students will receive content and instruction from BBHHS staff related to Suicide Prevention and Awareness. All content is provided by the Sandy Hook Promise, certified by the State of Ohio, and district-reviewed.


If you have opted your student(s) out of this HB 123 Colony, they will report to the cafeteria for a supervised study hall, where attendance will be taken. Students who opted out must report to study hall; they are NOT permitted to leave the building for Open Campus. 


If you have any questions pertaining to the HB 123 Suicide Prevention curriculum, please contact Megan Boulton (boultonm@bbhcsd.org).

School Messenger System

This week brought us our first severe weather, which resulted in a calamity day. We have recently changed our mass communication system to a program called School Messenger. If you did not receive the mass notification call or text for the Thursday snow day, please take a moment to opt-in to School Messenger.


Information on how to join the BBHHCSD and BBHHS School Messenger lists can be found in the graphic below. Please note that some carriers may prevent mass calls from going through based on your phone settings. If you are not receiving calls and have opted in, please check with your carrier for potential setting issues to ensure important updates are received.


At this time, School Messenger is designed for use by parents only. We are working on developing protocols and settings to allow students to be added to School Messenger lists in the near future.

Senior Portrait Sessions w/ Cavanaugh Photography and Josten Orders

Please be aware that Cavanaugh Photography, the official Brecksville-Broadview Heights High School photography partner, will be on campus on Tuesday, December 10th, to offer THEIR LAST on-campus FREE PORTRAIT sessions for students in the Class of 2025. These photo sessions will be held in the BBHHS Aux Gym from 7:30 am until 10:30 am. Interested Seniors simply need to stop into the gym to get their photo taken.

This Week at BBHHS!

The winter season is off to a strong start at BBHHS!. Our Boys and Girls Swim and Diving teams opened their season with a meet against Strongsville this week, while the Boys and Girls Basketball teams began their home schedules with impressive victories inside The Hive. Our Lady Bees are off to an especially strong start, opening at 3-0. The team would love to see you at a game this season to support them during what will surely be a very special season for them and the school. Good luck to our wrestlers who open their season this weekend at the Beast of the East tournament, one of the top early-season tournaments in the country.


Academics also took center stage as we hosted a well-attended SAT Prep session led by Seeley Test Prep. These sessions, highly valued by students, offer focused preparation for the SAT and ACT, providing an excellent school-day option for test readiness. Students consistently praise these opportunities for their effectiveness and impact. We encourage all BBHHS students preparing to take the SAT or ACT to explore the services made available by Seeley Test Pros.



Adding to the festive winter spirit, the BBHHS orchestra performed at their annual holiday concert, filling the auditorium with beautiful seasonal music and cheer. Meanwhile, Student Government brought the holidays to life with their "Deck the Halls" project, transforming the main hallway into a spectacular holiday display. Themes included a holiday-themed New York City, an elves’ workshop, a candy cane paradise, and a winter wonderland. Creative decorations, vibrant lights, and thoughtful touches have made the building especially bright and joyful.


And, of course, this week also marked the return of Backo, the BBHHS Elf on the Shelf. Backo's presence always brings enjoyment to BBHHS. We encourage you to join in some of the fun by following our socials over the next two weeks to see what mischief Backo is causing in the halls!
