Embrace Courage to Take Action and Make Positive Change:
As we move into the second half of our school year, we continue to talk to students about ways to take action and reflect on those experiences.  Taking action to make our world a better place is a characteristic that we value in our school.  Service is one form of action. We define service as action that has a reach beyond the classroom with the purpose of making change.

“Courage is what it takes to stand up and speak; courage is also what it takes to sit down and listen.” ~Winston Churchill

In alignment with OCHD, BHS is no longer identifying close contacts that occurred from an exposure within a school setting.

Several schools and student groups across Bloomfield Hills Schools took the initiative to support students at Oxford schools following the recent tragedy in the neighboring district. 

East Hills recently celebrated their community with a visible sign of support by encouraging students to wear their school colors of red and white.
