The class originally produced 14 cakes, which were narrowed down to the final seven through class votes. The result of Monday’s school-wide voting landed Juniors Zachary Zumbusch and Garret Bullert, and Sophomore Joe Hayes’ Rockstar Energy Drink themed cake with the…

With the last week approaching, students prepare for the last day of school and the traditions they do. Some students like to start celebrating the last day on an early note.  “The morning of the last day of school my friends and I all go to Perkins for breakfast,” said Senior Kaylee Korbel. “We’ve done it since we were freshman and it’s sad to think that this will be our last time doing it together.”…

Everyone has heard them. Everyone has told a few. From the stereotypical to the unheard of, BHS has seen it’s fair share of gigglers. From Knock Knocks and What Do You Get Whens to the most obscene and vulgar jokes imaginable (You know the ones I’m referring to), these little devils can make the most serious man burst into laughter. Our team here at Hoofprint.net has assembled some prime examples from our very own students. A warning…

A suitcase may seem like an odd accessory for the average high schooler, but for Senior Christian Kulzer it’s become a necessity in order to maintain his business. Each day Kulzer fills that suitcase with Mountain Dew, Dr. Pepper, orange soda, energy drinks, gum, gushers, crazy straws, and candy bars to sell to his peers. “I had been thinking of an ideal business since freshman year,” said Kulzer. “I’ve always like the idea of selling…

When all their credits are earned, there are many options for how they can spend the rest of their school day including, being a teachers assisstant (TA), mentoring, or independent study. For Senior Andy Ortmann, mentoring was the way to go in his eyes. “I choose to mentor because I’m going…

The cafeteria was filled with students, parents, and artwork on the night of June 2nd. It was the final art show and the last choir concert of the 2010-2011 school year. Art students have been working hard all year in classes with Sheri Tampte, CiAnn Jackson, Jon Holtz, and John Gunderson. They finally got to show off their paintings, drawings, sculptures, and paper mache models. The seniors in the arts magnets program had to present their…

As seniors prepare to start their first year as Freshmen in college, many of them are adjusting to the thought of leaving their cars behind. From Volkswagen to Ford, to Chrysler to Pontiac, many will be sitting in the driveway waiting for them to come home for a visit. “Felix! He’s a 1996 Volvo. I started driving Felix on my 16th birthday, April 22nd, 2009” said Senior Annalee Mason, “and I still drive him. He…

“How do you feel like you’ve changed from your first month as a senior to your last week?” “Uhmm… well…” “Hold on… I need to think for a sec.” “Well… holy cow, give me a minute.” One simply asked question, so difficult to answer for BHS seniors. Senior year isn’t something many tend to over think but when they’re asked to explain how they’ve grown, it takes a minute for you to gather the knowledge…
