Dear Parents and Guardians,

On Wednesday, April 8 and Thursday, April 9, Bonner Springs High School will partner with the Bonner Springs Police Department and Bonner Springs Fire & EMS to host our Drive Brave for Prom activities for all juniors and seniors.

These events are designed to raise awareness about safe decision-making during prom season. While we aim to keep disruptions to the school day minimal, we believe this experience is important and well worth the small adjustments to students’ schedules.

Here’s what to expect:

Wednesday (April 8):
During 5th hour, community partners—including law enforcement and emergency services—will host informational stations in the commons and gym. Students can visit these during lunch, and some classes may also attend.

Thursday (April 9):
At 8:00 AM, all juniors and seniors will report to the auditorium for a brief presentation from Mothers Against Drunk Driving (MADD). Following the presentation, students will move to the student parking lot to observe a mock crash demonstration led by our local first responders. This portion will conclude near the end of seminar, after which students will return to class and resume a normal schedule.

We understand that portions of this program, particularly the mock crash demonstration, may be emotional for some students. Please know that school counselors and social workers will be available throughout the event to provide support for any student who may need it.

This program has had a powerful impact in the past, and we are grateful for the continued support of our community partners in helping reinforce safe and responsible choices for our students.

Thank you for your flexibility and support. If you have any questions, please don’t hesitate to reach out.

Zoe Donovan hosted the first ever Working Braves Fashion show yesterday, where she helped find outfits for students to "strut their stuff" on stage in the BSHS auditorium!

There were 28 Working Braves students who participated in the fashion show. Zoe's event raised over $200 for the Working Braves classroom. Once again, it's a great day to be BRAVE (especially for Zoe)!

Thank you, once again, to our wonderful USD 204 communities for a great showing at the Community Championship Celebration last night! It was exciting to have so many people come together to celebrate!

We were able to interact with several members of the 1984 Championship Team last night, too, which perfectly demonstrates what Mr. Moulin told this year's championship team during the celebration, "You’ve connected generations of Braves and given this community a moment it will never forget."

Mayor Tom Stephens also read a proclamation honoring the 2026 Championship team.

Special thanks to the following for making this a memorable event for all:
Bonner Springs High School Band
Bonner Springs Police Department
Bonner Springs Fire Department
Bonner Springs Edwardsville Area Chamber of Commerce
Union Bank & Trust

To our Bonner Springs High School Theatre community,


Something is coming...
Not just another show...
Not just another season...
Something...BIGGER...BOLDER...MORE AMBITIOUS THAN EVER BEFORE.

And no...I'm not telling you what it is...Not yet.
Starting Monday, the game begins.

For the next 14 days, you'll get one clue each day about next year's fall musical. Some clues will feel obvious. Others will throw you completely off. And some...might change your mind entirely...
That's intentional.

Your job is simple.
Pay attention. Connect the clues. Take your best guess.

I will be watching to see who figures it out first.
At the end of the 14 days, everything will be revealed!

And when it is...you will understand why we waited.

Until then...keep your eyes open.

Sincerely,
Zachary Shoemaker
Director

BSHS student athletes completed a second round of tests today at the University of Kansas for their Sports Translational Research for Improved Development and Excellence (STRIDE) program! KU is testing high schoolers from 10 school districts to collect performance data and improve outcomes over time for student athletes.

Students were tested with isometric belt squats and FitLights for reaction time (as pictured), but also grip strength, reach, lateral jump and other challenges across two different sessions. The initiative is led by the Jayhawk Athletic Performance Laboratory (JAPL), and overall, the research conducted is helping to better understand long-term athlete development across different ages and sports.

As part of our USD 204 preschool building study, Miss Aubrey's class took a trip to downtown Bonner Springs today!

They toured CST Sweets and enjoyed some yummy treats, got a close up look at the flower shop, coffee shop, and a set of apartments still in the construction phase.

The students also visited Captain Pate at the police station and enjoyed a picnic lunch.

Finally, they cooled off with an ice cream cone from Dairy Queen! It was a great way for our preschoolers to view a variety of buildings and partner with local businesses!
