Monday, May 9, was the BHS Bands' Spring Concert. The performances were exceptional as we've come to expect. The collaboration between the choir and the band and the debut of a student conductor really show how special this district is.
Tuesday, May 10, I was honored to be able to attend Voices of Bentonville at BHS. The students' personal memoirs of courage, perseverance, and
Thursday, May 12, was Leadership Day at Mary Mae Jones. One thing you can count on at MMJ is that the kids will be prepared and proud to share their experiences.On Friday, May 13, two exceptional groups of students achieved a milestone in their lives. They graduated from high school. For most students in Bentonville, this is stepping stone, but for students at Gateway and in the Special Education program, graduation signifies their commitment to beat the odds. I my opinion, it's one of our finest moments as a district.
Know any students male or female zoned for Bentonville West High School who would like to play golf next year? Coach Yarrington wants to talk to them Monday, May 23rd, at 6:30 pm.
