BHHS Students in Mr. Banwart’s World History class and Scholar Bowl team competed in the Euro Challenge this afternoon! The competition is for freshmen/sophomores, and requires each team to choose a European country and solve a current issue that it faces. These students presented on Managing Migrant Flows in Belgium, delivering a 15-minute presentation to a panel of judges and then fielding questions afterwards.
BHHS Spring sports were recognized this morning during a pep rally. Students also enjoyed participating in several activities during the rally.
Minutemen baseball came away with a 5-4 win in 7-innings last evening. Mason McCurdy had the walk off hit to score the game winning run to beat Springfield Lutheran for the 2nd time this week. Brennan Fulton took the mound and pitched 4.2 innings and struck out 9. Kameron Johnson closed it out with 2.1 innings, striking out 5 and walking none.
Members of the BHHS Track and Field gave up one of their practices for a day of service. They walked the high school grounds on Thursday picking up trash that has been left behind.
For the last two weeks, BHHS Spanish 2 students have been writing and illustrating children’s stories in English and Spanish. Today, they went over to Wolf Ridge to read those stories to Kindergarten through fourth graders. Both the elementary and high school students had an amazing time!
On Monday, the Bunker Hill FFA Chapter competed at the Section 15 Dairy judging contest. The varsity team placed 4th overall and congratulations to Grace Burris for placing 9th and Peter Jarden for placing 8th in the freshman category!

Mrs. Eschbach and Mr. Crook, BHHS ELA teachers, have discovered a way to make the writing process enjoyable for their AP Seminar: English 10 students! Each day students are tasked with a writing goal to complete for their Individual Research Reports. If their team reaches their word count, they get to participate in an activity to win points. The activity for today was a blindfolded draw of a chicken. Best chicken wins!
