End-of-Course Exam Scores Now Available
End-of-Course (EOC) exam scores for Algebra I, Geometry, Biology, American History, and American Government, and ELA II are now available for viewing in PowerSchool.
To access these scores, you must log in via the PowerSchool web portal and navigate to the Test Score Display tab located on the left margin menu bar. Please note that these scores are not accessible through the PowerSchool App, and parents/students must use a web browser version to see them.
As a reminder, students who participated in these EOC exams or AP exams are eligible to waive their participation in final exams. Students should communicate their intent directly to their teachers as soon as possible regarding whether they plan to take the final exam. Criteria for earning a finals waiver can be found later in this edition of the HS News and Notes.

26-27 Student Schedules to Be Released
Tentative Student schedules for the 2026–2027 school year will be made available for viewing in PowerSchool by both students and parents on Tuesday, May 26th.
Posted schedules reflect each student’s planned courses for the upcoming school year based on student requests and counselor meetings with students to resolve scheduling conflicts that occurred within the construction of the master schedule.
Please note that adjustments to the master schedule may still occur over the summer due to unforeseen circumstances, resulting in student schedule adjustments. In addition, teacher assignments and room numbers will be adjusted accordingly based on staff changes once our hiring process for the year is finalized.
At this time, schedule changes will only be made for one of the following three reasons:
- There is a technical error in the scheduling process.
- It is clear that the student is academically misplaced.
- There is a scheduling conflict.
Our school counselors have met with students to finalize any conflicts, so we expect the final schedule to be accurate and appropriate.
If you have any questions about your child’s schedule, please contact their assigned school counselor, and if you are requesting a schedule change due to one of the three reasons cited above, please have your child complete this form.
Please be aware that only the student can complete the schedule request form, as it is set to only accept responses from a bbhcsd domain.

Parking Pass Sales for 26-27 Begin This School Year
The PSO sale of personalized parking spaces for seniors will take place on Tuesday, June 2nd at 2:00 p.m. and Wednesday, June 3rd at 2:00 p.m. These personalized spaces will be sold by the PSO and cost $25.
During the sale, PSO volunteers will handle the payment process (only cash or check made payable to BBHHS PSO), collect the student’s personalized space design, confirm the parking space application is complete, confirm the students selected parking space (first-come, first-served), and complete the necessary paperwork to confirm the purchase of a space for 26-27
In order to be eligible to purchase a personalized parking space, all school fees must be paid, and the student parking application must be completed in advance. The parking application and space design requirements for 26-27 will be shared with the Class of '26 and their parents the week of May 11th.
After July 1, BBHHS staff will add the $60 parking pass fee to each student’s account who purchased a personalized space. Families will then be able to complete payment for the parking pass at that time.
General parking pass sales for the 26-27 school year, for juniors and sophomores (who are not eligible to purchase personalized spaces) will begin on August 4. To obtain a parking pass, students must complete the parking pass application and ensure that all school fees are paid. Those students will receive the parking application this July
Please plan ahead to meet these requirements if your student wishes to secure a parking pass or personalized space for the upcoming school year.

Final Exam Schedule
As we approach the end of the school year, please review the final exam schedule for the upcoming days and class periods.
If a student is absent for a scheduled exam, it is their responsibility to arrange a make-up time with the teacher. While planned absences during finals are strongly discouraged, if unavoidable, students must coordinate with their teacher in advance to schedule an alternate exam time and complete an excused absence form with their assigned principal.
Please note that students may not reschedule exams for convenience. Following the scheduled exam times ensures a fair and smooth process for all students.
Thank you for your cooperation in helping us finish the year successfully.

Final Exam Waiver Opportunity

Students will also still be given the opportunity to take the final exam for any course if they and the teacher agree that it is in the student’s best interest to demonstrate achievement and learning. We believe this change will positively impact students and reduce the time they spend preparing for exams where sufficient evidence of learning exists.

Updated School Fee Statements Now Available
Please note that current fee statements were emailed to parents and guardians as of May 1st. We ask all families to carefully review their child’s current fee statement at this time.
We respectfully remind families of the importance of reconciling all outstanding school fee accounts—especially for our juniors and seniors, as carrying an outstanding fee balance may result in restrictions on important student privileges, such as eligibility for open campus, the ability to secure a parking pass for next school year, participation in school events, and eligibility to participate in commencement.
To access your student fees account or pay your child's fee balance please visit the district’s secure online payment platform, PaySchools Central. Fees may also be paid by sending cash or a check (payable to BBHHS) to the Main Office or the school cafe for lunch balances.
If you have questions or need assistance regarding your child’s account, please don’t hesitate to contact the school administration. We appreciate your attention to this important matter and your partnership in supporting your child’s eligibility for school privileges.

This Week at BBHHS!
Our Academic Challenge Team taped the final episode of the long-running WEWS show Academic Challenge on Wednesday night, with the Bees facing off against the Revere Minute Men and Highland Hornets. We can’t share the results yet, but you can catch the episode on June 6th on News Channel 5. It was a very close match between all three teams!
On Tuesday, we held our annual Senior Awards Night. This is a tremendous evening where we recognize several graduating BBHHS Students who have accomplished such a great deal in their time at BBHHS. We are especially excited to congratulate Ben Mehendale and Ellie Toth as our 2026 Most Outstanding Student recipients for their well-rounded and impressive resumes during their time at BBHHS. We also offer a huge congratualtions to our Good Guy award winner, Luka Zivkovic, and Maureen Jonozzo Great Lady Award selection, Reese Schoenknecht! These awards recognize students who demonstrate a truly remarkable character and approachability that is respected by all who they come into contact.

Our Key Club Service award recipients, Jack DeMario and Martha Lavrishin were selected for their strong commitment to serving others and their communities. It was noted that both were always willing to accept a helping hand to all in need. Finally, our Steve Farnsworth Inspiration Award winner, Ellie Batcheller was selected for her ability to motivate those around her with her positive can-do attitude and strong work ethic. Congratulations to this year's winners!
Earlier this week, we were excited to host an NCAA commitment ceremony for several of our BBHHS athletes who will be continuing their athletic careers in the NCAA. Athletes from sports ranging from baseball, football, track and field, cross country, basketball, golf, wrestling, cheer, and soccer were joined by their teammates and families to finalize their commitment.
Congratulations to Kyle Brown, Logan Sidaway, Bryce Lennon, and Matt Smithberger, who qualified for Regionals in the boys 4x8 relay. Several other track athletes are still competing at District Finals this week, and we expect more qualifiers.
The Lady Bees softball team finished their season with a tough 2-1 loss to Twinsburg in the district finals in Wellington, coming just short in a closely contested game. The Lady Bees lacrosse team ended their season after a playoff loss in Wooster against St. Vincent-St. Mary, 8-6, reached the regional semi-finals in an impressive run.
We wrapped up graduation rehearsal and senior breakfast on Friday, and our seniors are now ready for commencement on Saturday!
