Message from the Principal

I hope this message finds everyone well-rested after the Thanksgiving break. This week our Winter Sports Season has its first contests of the year and all teams are now practicing and preparing to compete. Our music department is getting ready for their next concert and the cast and crew of “Radium Girls” remain hard at work getting ready for opening night. 

We have a very busy three-week stretch before the Winter Break. Please reach out with any questions or things I can help with. Have a great week.

Bow Bots

Good luck to the Bow Bot Team who are heading to Worcester Polytechnic Institute to compete in the Regionals this week. We can’t wait to hear how they do!

Music All-State

The following students were accepted to this year's NHMEA Classical All State festival: 

Emily Fauteux, alto voice, mixed choir

Colin FitzPatrick, clarinet, band

Katie McCabe, soprano voice, treble choir

Molly McKinnon, soprano voice, treble choir

Please congratulate them if you see them. This is a great accomplishment, and they will represent our school at the festival in April.

LinkedIn

One of the goals we had for this year was to try to connect more of our alumni to the school. As we look for ways to increase experiential and service learning opportunities for our students, connecting to past Falcons is a great way to do this. To help in this effort there is an updated Bow High School account on LinkedIn. Give it a follow and help us grow our connections.

Citrus Fundraiser

The Class of 2025 would like to let you all know that the Class of 2025 Citrus Sale Fundraiser is officially live and accepting orders. Here is the link if you would like to order any citrus or other goodies and help support the Class of 2025's fundraising efforts. Orders close on December 16th. 

In the Classroom

This week I would like to talk about something fun from outside of the classroom. Over the past week a group of BHS students and staff have been touring France. They have checked out sites of both cultural and historical significance to the French people. One of the first places the group visited was the American cemetery in Normandy. I can only imagine what a powerful experience it must have been for our group to be there. Traveling to other places is one of the best ways to develop empathy and understanding of other people and I am excited to hear about all the things the group learned when I see them next week.

Message from the Principal

Good Afternoon. I am writing this message from a hotel room in Philadelphia as I am getting ready to run the Philadelphia Marathon tomorrow. I thought I had better be safe and send this out today just to make sure it got out in case tomorrow is a struggle. 

This week we only have classes on Monday and Tuesday. I hope that everyone in our school community is able to enjoy a little time off with the Thanksgiving holiday. Personally, I am thankful to be able to work with such a great staff at BHS and to interact every day with our students. Thank you to everyone in the community for the strong support you give our schools.

Happy Thanksgiving to all.

Some Special Thank-yous

Thank you to everyone who organized and volunteered at the craft fair this weekend. If you ever need evidence that our community cares about its students, all you need to do is look at all the work that went into making this event take place.

Also, thank you to Kate Kulacz, Nicole Heath, Emily Rider, Dan Attori, and Martha Rae for all they did to run Apply NH on Monday and the Military Fair on Wednesday. This is a very busy stretch for our school counselors who are helping students plan for after high school, writing recommendations, and supporting our students. We have the best School Counseling Staff in any school!

In the Classroom

One of the unique ways we support students at Bow High School is through our Learning Lab. The Learning Lab is run by Cathy Knowles who works with students on completing class assignments, strengthening Executive Functioning Skills, and fostering academic independence. Students who attend Learning Lab sit with Ms. Knowles, or an on-duty member of the teaching staff, to review assignments they have to complete and identify specific areas that they need to develop. Ms. Knowles and the teachers who have duty in the Learning Lab to a terrific job of supporting our students.

In the Classroom

This year we have three sections of Woodworking. This is a class that is open to students in grades 9 - 12. Jon Cannon and Dave Niemaszyk are the instructors for this course and have spent a lot of time thinking about the skills they teach. Currently students are working on projects that benefit the entire school community. This week, students in Period 7 created a “mud kitchen” for the pre-K classes. Other students are working on a new bench that can be used by all students in the school. Already projects from this class are seen and being used throughout the building**. **

Message from the Principal

Thank you to family members and students who attended the Student Progress Conferences last week. Thank you too for everyone who played a part in our school meeting on Friday in which we honored veterans. Veterans Day is a time for us to reflect on the sacrifices made by service members and their families. There are a number of veterans in our communities of Bow and Dunbarton and all of us are in their debt for their selflessness in service to our nation. Below are the two videos that were shared at our school meeting: 

History of Veterans Day  

Thank you for your service

I encourage you to take a moment to read President Reagan’s 1985 speech on Veterans Day in which he talks about the importance of this day for all Americans: Reagan Speech.

Lastly, here is a short video of us raising the POW / MIA flag for the first time over BHS: Flag Raising

As always, please do not hesitate to contact me with any questions. Have a great week.
Sports Awards

AP Honor Roll

This week we received notice that Bow High School was named to the AP Honor Roll. Of the nearly 80 eligible high schools in the state only 16 earned this distinction. Of the 16, less than half are public schools. Thank you to our dedicated staff and students.

In the ClassroomDid you know that Bow High School has two Pre-K classes? We are lucky that the youngest students in the school district attend our school. Samantha O’Donnell and the entire Pre-K team do an incredible job of welcoming their students into public school and then helping them develop skills so they will be successful. I am always impressed by what a great job the educators in the Pre-K room do in building structured routines. Recently, Pre-K students and the students in Graphic Design collaborated on creating “monsters”. Pre-K students described what their monster looked like and then the Graphic Design students created it on the computer. Activities like this are why, selfishly, I love going to visit with these young students.

Message from the Principal

I’d like to say congratulations and thank you to the student organizations who helped put on Trunk or Treat last Saturday, Peer Outreach and Tabitha Pauley for the Halloween fun, our athletic teams for their successful seasons (some still ongoing), Jill Armstrong and Student Senate for organizing the Mock Election, and The Taters for their hilarious improv show on Friday. I feel very lucky to be surrounded by such talented, fun, and caring students.

This Friday we will have our monthly school meeting. To accommodate our guest speaker, Maj. Gen. David J. Mikolaities, we will have a different schedule than previous meeting days. The schedule for the day can be found here: November 08, 2024

Part of our recognition of Veterans Day will include raising the POW / MIA flag. This flag was established by Congress and stated that it would be the symbol of our nation’s concern and commitment to resolving as fully as possible the fates of Americans still prisoner, missing and unaccounted for. According to the US Department of Defense, more than 80,000 American service personnel are missing from previous conflicts and 38,000 are estimated to be recoverable. Our hope in raising this flag is to bring education and awareness of the sacrifices service members and their families have made over the history of the United States.

This week will also include an Early Release Day on Monday (schedule here: November 04, 2024) and no school on November 05 (make sure to vote!). Have a good week.

This week, Mallory Niemaszyk’s Civics class had the opportunity to work with graphic novel author Marek Bennett (author of The Civil War Diary of Freeman Colby). Mr. Bennett showed the students the process he goes through when researching a topic and how he uses primary sources to create his novels. Students are taking the lessons that they learned from Marek Bennett and are applying them to works they create based on the amendments of the US Constitution.

This week in Sophia Tucker’s Metalsmithing class students continued to work on designing and constructing earrings and other metal-based projects. Students began a recent class by going over a recent quiz where they were tasked with identifying different types of metals and tools that were used in the course. From there students worked on a variety of individual tasks ranging from finding images online to use as the basis for a design, to drawing their own design, to using metal to create their own, individualized pieces. It was a lot of fun watching the creative process play out in class.

I hope that everyone enjoyed the three-day weekend. Last Thursday BES students and staff had to come over to the high school. Afterwards we received this message from BES Principal Lori Krueger:

On behalf of everyone from BES we would like to thank the BHS staff for all their support and help today as we arrived at your school.  The Kindergarten teachers shared that as they walked up to the main entrance of the school, high school students were playing rock, paper, scissors through the window of the second floor hallway with the kids… I know there were many more acts of kindness and support that were experienced by BES!

This week we have several events taking place including performances from our music ensembles, a visit from the National Guard and Civil Support Team, and a school meeting on Wednesday. Please reach out with any questions and have a great week.

BEA Blood Drive

Every two seconds someone in the U.S. needs blood. It is essential for surgeries, cancer treatment, chronic illnesses, and traumatic injuries. Whether a patient receives whole blood, red cells, platelets or plasma, this lifesaving care starts with one person making a generous donation. On Friday the BEA is hosting a Blood Drive at Bow High School from 11:00 to 4:00. Please consider donating if you can.

Fall Concert

Our music ensembles will be performing this Thursday at 7:00 in the Auditorium. Please come hear our talented student-musicians.

School Meeting on Wednesday

On Wednesday we will have our second School Meeting of the year. There will be announcements from each of the classes, a short video, and a competition between the BHS Granite State Challenge Team and Staff. These meetings are an opportunity to build school spirit and connections.

NH National Guard School Visit

The New Hampshire Army National Guard will be present at Bow High on October 16th accompanied by their Civil Support Team (CST) and Chemical, Biological, Radiological, and Nuclear (CBRN) team. The primary mission of these teams is to support civil authorities by identifying chemical agents and substances, assessing potential consequences, advising on appropriate response measures, and assisting with requests for additional state and federal military resources. This event is open to all students who are considering a career in STEM fields or have an interest in working with the New Hampshire National Guard. Teachers  are encouraged to bring their classes to visit the teams stationed in front of the school.

The teams will be showcasing their unit’s transportation assets, which include a command vehicle, an operations trailer, a communications vehicle known as the Unified Command Suite (offering a wide range of secure communications capabilities), and an analytical laboratory system vehicle (equipped with comprehensive analysis tools for characterizing unknown hazards). Additionally, there will be several general-purpose vehicles and a remote-controlled robot designed to detect airborne chemicals.For a brief overview of the Army National Guard Civil Support Team, please refer to the following video: Army National Guard Civil Support Team 60 Second.

In the Classroom

Students in Mrs. Dow’s LINKS classes and Mrs. Chaffee’s AP Statistics classes worked together this week to complete an investigation called “Candy Grab”. LINKS students, over a couple of different trials, attempted to see how much candy they could pick up at one time. The AP Statistics students used that data to do statistical analysis and make predictions. It was really fun watching these groups of students working together to have fun and to learn.
