Student Writing Handbook

In the first weeks of the new semester, your son or daughter will be receiving a student writing handbook. The writing handbook has been created by the BHS English department to help strengthen the writing skills of our students and assist them in the writing assignments they complete across the Bridgman High School curriculum.

This handbook is the property of Bridgman High School, and if lost or damaged, your child will be fined $15.
