BHS has a new addition — introducing The Braves Closet! Brought to fruition by our incredible social work team, the Braves Closet was created to support our students and families by providing clothing, toiletries, and other essentials — helping ensure every student feels comfortable, confident, and ready to succeed! We’re incredibly grateful to our community partners including @beencouragednow, @thebridgetc, Midlothian Police Department, and the many staff and community members that have donated and helped make this vision a reality through their generosity and support. Your kindness is making a real difference for our students and their families. If you or your business would like to get involved, we’re always looking for donations of hygiene products, new or gently used clothing, gift cards, and other essentials. Every contribution helps us care for our community! For more information, please contact our Bremen High School Social Work Team at (708) 371-3600.

Congratulations to Jesly C., nominated by Mr. Falvey as BHS September Social Studies Student of the Month!
Mr. Falvey said this when nominating her, "Jesly completes all of her work with passion and precision. Her answers are always detailed, and she is always willing to help her peers. Jesly is also a part of my ELS intervention time. During this short 25 minutes, she checks her grades, helps her peers, and independently works on her language skills through apps like DuoLingo.” Way to go, Jesly! Keep shining bright and inspiring others with your hard work and dedication.

✨ The first 30 students to flash their Braves Bash Badge during 2nd–3rd period passing time scored a sweet surprise! 🍭

To earn a Braves Bash Badge, students must be passing all classes, have strong attendance, and stay discipline-free. 🌟

In the spirit of our Homecoming theme “There’s No Place Like Home,” we celebrated with giant lollipops! ❤️💛

This week, Bremen High School students have been visiting the BHSD 228 September 11 Memorial Exhibit, honoring the 24th anniversary of 9/11.

What began five years ago as a collaboration between the OFHS IMC and Social Studies teams has grown into a traveling memorial featuring artifacts donated by staff—newspapers, photos, flags, videos, and more—that bring history to life.

This year, the exhibit is hosted at Bremen for the first time, allowing students to reflect, remember, and learn together.

In collaboration with The Nature Conservancy at Indian Boundary Prairies in Markham, IL, students from our Environmental Investigations classes had the opportunity to visit Paintbrush Prairie and discover the incredible treasure we have right here in our community.

While the original plan was to participate in a butterfly feeding event, the monarchs were not available. The Nature Conservancy quickly rescheduled activities, which resulted in some amazing new experiences for our students! They learned about the vital role prairies play in our environment, explored plant and animal species unique to this habitat, and gained insight into invasive species—along with the ongoing efforts by The Nature Conservancy and the Illinois Department of Transportation to control their spread.

Students also had the chance to walk through the prairie and collect samples for observation. Following their time at Paintbrush Prairie, they visited Oak Forest High School to observe the prairie restoration work in progress along 151st Street.

Having access to these sites as part of their studies allows students to engage in authentic, hands-on learning while deepening their understanding of local environments and habitats.

Check out this awesome opportunity for those interested in welding!
