Reese participates well in class and always has her work done on time. She is helpful to others and encourages her peers. She is also respectful to the staff and peers.


BHJH 6th Grade McDonald's Student of the Month is Jocelyn Shelato.
Jocelyn has made a fantastic transition into 6th grade. She is actively participating in all her classes and has shown so much growth from last year. Jocelyn has a bright smile and bubbly personality that brightens everyone’s day. We are excited to see how much she continues to grow throughout the school year.


BHJH 5th Grade McDonald's Student of the Month is Aria Heden.
Aria is the 5th-grade student of the month! She isn’t afraid to stand up for what is right even if that means disagreeing with a friend. She works hard at all she does, and she is the first person to jump in when she sees another student in need of help. She is responsible, kind, and a great role model to the rest of the 5th grade. Keep up the great work!
