Molweni (Hello in Xhosa), BLS community! It’s been 3 weeks since we returned from the most amazing trip ever to South Africa. Everyone is invited to our post-trip reunion on Tuesday, March 24, from 4-5 PM in the Seevak room. The students and chaperones who visited Johannesburg and Cape Town last month will be sharing their pictures/videos, telling stories, and answering questions about their 9-day trip that took place over February break. Come hear what they have to say about their international travel experience and learn more about the upcoming trip in 2027.

One of our special guests is Mr. Ed Burley, ’91. He will share his experience as a BLS alumnus and as a parent of a student currently attending school in Cape Town. Light refreshments will be served.

Join BLS GSA during this W-Block (3/18) in the Seevak room to come hang out (and eat) with your friends. With the tension and high stress of current events, GSA wants to host a space for students to relax and have fun. There will be free snacks, board games, music, and stress relief mandalas. We can’t wait to see you there! Fill out the form to get a pass emailed to you.

The time has come!! Please read the following information carefully:

– Yearbook payments: $100 cash (preferred) or $100 check (made to Boston Latin School: Yearbook). Venmo/Zelle/CashApp will not be accepted at this time

– What do you get?: 200 pages of glossy, full-color pages bound in hardcover. The cost of $100 has been the same since the 90s, so we are getting a good deal on the cost! Payments can be brought to Mx. Amico in room 237. I will be available after school for the foreseeable future between 2:15 – 2:20. Please do not leave money on my desk or mailbox unattended.

– It is strongly preferred for payments to be made sooner (we need to pay the publisher, after all!) rather than later, though payments will be accepted until books come in

– Yearbooks will be available for pick up, per BLS tradition, at the Thanksgiving pep rally. This means that senior activities (senior sunset, prom, and graduation) will all be featured in the Yearbook!

– Please email or see Mx. Amico with any questions!

Join the Boston high school ultimate frisbee team this spring! Players from BLS and other city schools join forces to compete in the state high school league, including games, tournaments, and the state championship in late May. Players new and old will learn the skills and strategies, the rules (the sport is self-officiated), make friends with teammates from across the city, and have a blast. There are playing options for 7th and 8th graders also. For more information, go to www.buda.org/en_us/e/boston-grades-3-12-ultimate-spring-2026.
