As many people now know our incredible teacher Teri Grimes will be retiring at the end of the school year. The administration will be hiring a new teacher to fill her position in the next month, while anyone can apply for the job the students of BHS believe that we already have someone who would not only be a fantastic teacher but also a very worthy successor.

Kelsey Glasgow began student teaching with Teri at the start of the second semester and she has quickly become such a light in our department. She served as the assistant director on the highly praised spring production of Oklahoma, she is teaching the drama 1 and 2 classes, and is directing a one act in the drama 3 honors class. Not only has Kelsey been a great leading figure in the classroom but she has also been a great friend outside the classroom, she chaperoned our drama troupe when we competed at the IE festival in Seattle and at the State conference in Ellensburg. Kelsey is kind, hardworking,funny, a fantastic teacher and friend all the students here absolutely love her.

She also has worked hand in hand with Teri these past few months, she has seen how our department works and how it has been run for years. She will be able to carry on the tradition that has shaped us for so long.

By creating this petition we hope to show the administration that we the students believe that there is no one else for this job. I thank you for you support!
