On Heritage Day at BHMS students were asked to bring an artifact, favorite family food, traditional game(s), cultural toy, or an old family photograph to share with classmates and guests. Then each student had the opportunity to read aloud a letter they received from their older relative or family friend.

Dear Families:

The Birmingham Bloomfield Community Coalition is planning its bi-annual drug and alcohol survey for 8th-12th grade students attending schools in Bloomfield Hills and Birmingham.

The survey will, once again, include many of the questions used in the Michigan Alcohol and Other Drugs School Survey. Questions will also be included to reflect the trends seen in the last two years in the following areas: community norms and perceptions of substance use; economic and cultural conditions; marijuana legalization; vaping, mental health issues, and key influences on students' decision to use or not to use drugs or alcohol.

These surveys enable the coalition to capture an accurate and timely representation of what is happening with our students, identify potential substance use behaviors and beliefs, as well as track the progress of substance abuse prevention efforts. STUDENT ANSWERS ARE ANONYMOUS AND NAMES ARE NOT USED

The survey will be administered on Friday, December 6, 2019, at Bloomfield Hills Middle School to the 8th grade students. If you do not want your student to participate, please email Principal English at REnglish@bloomfield.org by Wednesday, December 4, 2019.
