Announcements

  • Jostens was here today picking up orders from seniors and sophomores.  Seniors will need to at least order a cap & gown to go through the graduation ceremony.  You can still order through this link.  The sooner you order, the better, as the price does typically go up the closer it gets to graduation due to shipping costs added.  Jostens for BHRA
