At approximately 12:15 this afternoon BSHS was placed on a code yellow safety lockdown due to a situation involving an individual student. All staff and students were safe throughout the lockdown while the situation was handled with the assistance of law enforcement. We hold the safety of our staff and students as a top priority and appreciate the cooperation of students, staff, and parents as this did result in a delay of our dismissal times.
Senior parents - information on the senior Shepherd University trip scheduled for Tuesday, Oct 11 was distributed to students in homeroom. If you do not want your child to attend please return the form signed Tuesday morning or call the main office today.

Carrie Holloway is honored and humbled to be joining Berkeley Springs High School as an Assistant Principal. This is her tenth year in education and is most recently coming from Berkeley County where she served as an Educator, New Teacher Mentor, and ran Athletics for Spring Mills Middle School while also coaching Track & Field and Boys Soccer for Spring Mills High School.
Holloway’s education experience started at Bethel Masters Commission where she earned a Leadership Development certificate while also traveling on an international motivational speaking team. She finished her Bachelor’s in Youth Ministry at the University of Valley Forge and worked in ministry positions until transitioning to the corporate world. This reminded Holloway of her true passion for mentoring, so she returned to school and earned her teaching credentials through Shenandoah University then her Masters in Educational Leadership from Regent University.
Holloway is looking forward to becoming a part of the Berkeley Springs community and cheering on our students as they mature into their futures. LET'S GO INDIANS!!!

The BSHS XC teachers team challenge you all to participate in the OPEN RACE that will take place at the end of our HS Invitational at Cacapon State Park on Saturday September, 17th, 2022.
In this open race you can participate individually or by teams. It would be wonderful if each school fielded a different team. Imagine the motivation we would give our students if they could see adult teams from PPS, PVES, WES, WSIS, WSMS, BSHS and the BOE!
Teams consist of between 4 and 7 people. The first 4 of each team score. Among these 4 there must be at least one woman.
Each team must wear an identifying shirt/uniform.
We will donate the majority of the proceeds to the BSHS Athletic Boosters.
We hope to see you there! More information can be found on the website at:
