Dear Lurgio Families,
I hope everyone is settling into summer routines. This year, we will continue to send out our newsletter throughout the summer so that we can communicate regarding all COVID-related issues as we head into the next school year. 8th grade parents, you can expect to begin hearing from Bedford High School around the first week of July. 7th grade parents, we expect to be in regular communication with you throughout the summer.
I truly hope that in the next few weeks you find the rest, relaxation, and rejuvenation that comes with our typical summer break.
Be well and stay safe.
Best,
Ed Joyce

A few notes:

-Foreign language awards were not all ready and will be mailed over the summer.
-A separate day/time will be set up for families to check the lost and found items in a safe way. We will be in touch once plans are finalized.

A note from BHS Athletic Director Corey Parker regarding the Bedford High School fall athletic program:
Please take a moment to sign up for fall sports below. Although planning for summer workouts, concussion testing and the start of the fall sport season is still in process, sharing contact information is the first step to be able to keep you in the loop.
Thank you and wishing everyone a safe and peaceful summer!
