Senior Parents... Now is the time to place Baby picture ad in the 2012 yearbook
Welcome from the Principal
Welcome to Boyertown Area Senior High (BASH)! We are truly excited to begin the 2011/2012 school year.
We support the following words of William Lyon Phelps … “A student never forgets an encouraging private word, when it is given with sincere respect and admiration.”
We encourage inquiry among all stakeholders within the school community. We believe this will increase the likelihood of success for all students beyond their years of high school. We are highly confident in our faculty, support staff, administrators, and community who sincerely care and continue to have the best interest of ALL students in mind. We commit to the philosophy that it does take a community to raise a child. We welcome suggestions which will enhance the learning for all of our students.
We will continue to work to provide students with many educational opportunities to build strong relationships with all stakeholders. We will work hard to meet the needs of all of our students. We believe in developing successful young men and women to become life-long learners in a 21st Century global economy.
Within the scope of the school day, we will be offering many extended learning opportunities to all of our students. Through our intervention center (tutoring and homework support); students will be provided with many opportunities to extend their learning.
We encourage the utilization of the Home Access Center (HAC), which allows parents/guardians to view their child(ren)’s grades and assignments via the internet. https://homeinfo.berksiu.org/homeaccess/
Parents will receive additional information on various presentations and evening programs, via mailings, that will provide pertinent information regarding their child(ren)’s education, career planning, and safety. We encourage the use of the BASH website link, http://www.boyertownasd.org/our-schools/senior-high/index.aspx where we will post current mailings.
The BASH BEAR Essentials weekly e-newsletter mailing is another resource to find pertinent information regarding our school. The following link, http://www.boyertownasd.org/pages/email-signup.aspx , will allow you to sign up as an active member of the listserv for this e-newsletter mailing.
We feel that these efforts promote greater school-to-home communication to ensure our students, parents/guardians, and community are informed and aware of our many excellent programs.
Please do not hesitate to contact my office should you have any questions or concerns relating to safety or the programs offered at BASH.
Thank you.
Mr. Brett A. Cooper, Principal email: bcooper@boyertownasd.org
