BEHS Families and Students,

We are so excited to see everyone in the morning for the first day of school tomorrow, August 12th, 2026! It has been a great summer! We are excited to see your kids tomorrow and start the 2026/2027 school year. Thank you to all those who participated in open houses; we had a great time getting to meet you.

The first day is always a lot of fun. It's an exciting time that we look forward to and plan for all summer long. This summer has been one of excitement and we have all felt an eagerness to get into our new space! Tomorrow morning we will all come together for an incredible start to the school year. Please see the information below, this information will help things run smoothly throughout the day!

Traffic information can be found by following this link. The Mount Washington Police Department has been a huge help by providing us with marquees by our two entrances on 44, please pay attention to the signs! The better we follow the plan, the quicker traffic will flow allowing students to get their school year started off right! The drop-off line will begin to flow at 6:50.

As students enter the building, they will enter through one of two entry points noted in the traffic video linked above. Students will enter the building and pass through the weapons detection system. This added layer of security plays a big part in keeping our students safe at BEHS. If your student brings a backpack, or any type of bag (purses included), they will have to put their bag on the conveyor. Once any bags are placed on the conveyor, students will simply walk through the walking lanes and pick up their bag. Follow this link for more information and guidance on how to enter through the weapons detection systems.

Once students are in the building we will have them grab breakfast if they choose and then either sit in the cafeteria or walk in the designated walking loop. The loop will be marked and students will be able to walk the loop if they choose. If they choose to walk, they are expected to follow the signs, walk (not run), and keep moving at all times around the loop. At 7:00 a.m. they will move towards their first period class.

We will have plenty of staff and some of our student leaders stationed throughout the building to help students find their way in the morning. We want the first day to be exciting and fun for our kids, we have done our best to plan for all of the newness that we all get to experience this year! We are ready, and we cannot wait to see everyone tomorrow morning!

Our school will be implementing different arrival and dismissal procedures this school year. This is due to our expanded campus, construction, and the implementation of Weapons Detection Systems this year. Check out the video to gain a full understanding of how traffic will work next week!
