NOMINATIONS NEEDED!
Each year our BHS PTSA recognizes two individuals for making outstanding efforts on behalf of our students. The Golden Acorn Award is presented to a school or community volunteer in recognition of their dedication and service to children and youth. The Outstanding Educator Award recognizes individuals who make significant contributions that enhance the education of children.
We need to hear from you! Do you know a school volunteer or teacher who has had a significant impact on your student during the past school year? If so, please send an email to presidents@bellevuehighptsa.com to nominate this person for the Golden Acorn (outstanding volunteer) or Outstanding Educator (super teacher) Award. Include their name and what they’ve done to make an impact on your student or why you think they deserve to be recognized. Award winners will be recognized at our final General Membership meeting in early June.

Graduation Leis Fundraiser ($35)

Each year, the BHS Orchestra Booster Club holds a Graduation Leis fundraiser. Your purchase will help support the BHS orchestra by providing sheet music, instruments, field trips and much more. These strings of golden yellow plumeria have become the must-have accessory for our graduating students' big day, so don't delay placing your order.

Please visit the BHS Orchestra website http://www.bellevueorchestra.org/lei-sales for more info and to order. The deadline to order is Monday June 1.  Pickup of Leis will be the morning of June 25th at T-Mobile Park prior to the Graduation Ceremony.

The Orchestra Booster Club is seeking parents to participate in our monthly meetings currently held via Zoom. In addition, we are searching for an individual to assist with tech (website maintenance, etc) and someone to possibly fill the secretary position. Several parents on our current board have graduating seniors and are completing their term. If interested, please email Michael Linscott at Silvaviator@mac.com

BHS BOYS SOCCER
After a 2 year wait, Bellevue Boys Soccer kicked off their season last Tuesday, taking on Newport. While JVC lost 0-2, the game was exciting to watch. Senior Adam Chang scored a great individual goal for JV in their 1-3 loss. Varsity went down 0-2, but came back to tie the game with goals by Senior Kavon Arbabi and senior Andrew Rose, sending the game to an exciting overtime finish, when senior Daniel Xu scored the winning goal with one minute left in the game.

On Thursday, JVC played a home game v Interlake to a 3-2 victory with freshman Will Reverman making some amazing saves in goal. JV had a rousing 4-3 win v Sammamish after going down by two goals early in the game, with goals by freshman Elijah Burns, sophomore Jeffrey Liao (2) and junior Ryan Chang. Varsity fought hard but lost 0-2, despite a great effort by junior goalie Zach Sandoval.

FREE CAMP 4 KIDS - VOLUNTEERS NEEDED!
We are looking for high schooler camp teachers for this summer! You can give back to the community and receive volunteer hours!
 
We, Free Camp 4 Kids, are a non-profit organization aiming to help younger kids experience fun and develop passion during this unprecedented time. Free Camp 4 Kids offers all students the ability to partake in engaging classes without agonizing over budgetary weight.
 
Over spring winter break, we hosted classes such as singing, robotics, culinary, book club, and more. We’ve had a total of 375 students since the past sessions as well as an additional 18 classes. Because of the tremendous achievement and positive feedback, we are planning on continuing this camp during this summer. We’ll be hosting in person classes, such as tennis, soccer, football, and many more. However, we need more teachers in order to do so! We are looking for high schoolers who are passionate about building a community and who might want to share their talent and love in topics such as the ones listed above, or anything else. All the way from ballet, instruments, or even cooking, we are open to anything!  Below is an application for high schoolers interested in participating in the online summer camp. Keep in mind, you can earn volunteer hours for this!
 
Camps will start on June 28th. 
 
 
 
 
 
I trust that we would all be able to cooperate in bringing fun and provide an excellent experience for kids!
  
 
Thank you so much for your help,
