Key Club/NHS FOOD DRIVE: 1 in 6 children don’t know where their next meal is going to come from. When kids have access to healthy meals every day they feel better, do better in school, and have fewer behavior problems. You can help us keep children healthy every day by bringing in non-perishable food items to your 1^st period class November 6-20. The class with the most items will receive a reward of breakfast. Mr. Cavanaugh’s class is last year’s reigning champ!

December Concerts- If you are new to Bismarck High School Choir, or if you
like a reminder- we DO NOT charge for our BHS Holiday Concerts. All of our events held in
December are FREE (the best price) at BHS. However, we do ask that you bring food items
to support the BHS food pantry for our students and their families. If you are wondering
what types of foods are best?? Things that can be made in the microwave are awesome.
Also, there is always a need for canned soup and vegetables. Each year the music families
fill this pantry for most of the spring semester just from our concerts, once again YOU ARE
AWESOME!!
