A HUGE THANK YOU to everyone who helped out to make the 2013 Freshmen Barbecue a success! We had a beautiful sunny day - perfect for welcoming the Class of 2017 to BHS. Oodles of dessert treats were donated by the sophomore class and generous upperclassmen families. Hundreds of burgers and hotdogs were grilled by the Brookline Chapter of the Rotary Club and B.Good Burgers. Fresh fruit, salad and burger fixings were prepared by the BHS cafeteria staff. This all came together with the help of dozens of volunteers. Everyone was fed in an hour and back to class by one o'clock!

VISIT THE NEW BHS WEBSITE The new Brookline High School website provides information about the school and its resources for students and their families. The BHS "Information Booklet 2013-14" which you can access from the front page of the web site, contains information to help with the transition into the high school. The booklet contains calendars, contacts, opening day schedules, information on the cafeteria, transportation, PTO, Sagamore and more.
DANCING WITH THE BROOKLINE STARS Headmaster Deborah Holman will be dancing in this Rotary event on September 21. This event raises funds for Deb's chosen charity, which is Brookline High's "Gretchen Underwood Fund." Gretchen Underwood is a former BHS administrator, and upon her retirement, her colleagues established the fund to support students in need of financial assistance. The fund allows BHS students to access the many rich offerings at the high school, regardless of financial need. For more information or to make a donation, please visit the event website.
TENTH ANNUAL COLLEGE ESSAY WORKSHOP for Seniors (Class of 2014) Saturday, September 28, 2013, 8:30 a.m.-12:30 p.m. Sponsored by the PTO. Whether you have already chosen a topic and started writing or have not yet given the essay a thought, this free workshop is designed to move you to the next step in the process. Led by dedicated BHS English department faculty and supported by parent volunteers, students are grouped with peers who are at a similar stage of writing so that they may receive individual attention and feedback. In the past nine years, close to 2,000 BHS seniors have attended this workshop and found it effective. Parent volunteers needed! This is a one-day, one-time commitment. Please sign up to help students with their writing or to provide logistical support (help with set up the day before, sign in students and parents the day of, provide snacks, etc.). Students and parent volunteers sign up at
THE FIRST SOPHOMORE CLASS PARENT MEETING is September 30, 2013, 7 PM in the Black Box Theater. Sophomore year kick-off messages from Headmaster Deb Holman, our new Dean, Anthony Meyers, and Guidance Department Chair, Lenny Libenzon.
