Physics students use a "ticker tape" timer to collect position data for a falling object. From the position data, velocity can be calculated. Finally, analysis of the velocity-time graph allows determination of the acceleration due to gravity.
How many atoms did it take to make that drawing? Chemistry students use the molar mass of carbon and Avogadro's Number to calculate the number of Carbon atoms used to make a charcoal drawing.
Statistic Olympics are in full swing! Lots of tough competition in our five events. Who will take home the gold?

Yesterday we announced to the high school band and chorus students that we have planned a trip to New York City, June 1-6, 2024! This trip is for current 8th- 11th grade band and chorus students.
More details to come at our February 2023 parent/ student meeting. We will discuss fundraising, rehearsals and all details for this trip at that meeting.
We are excited for this opportunity of having clinics with music instructors from around the country along with unforgettable performance venues! GO STORM!!!! ⛈️
The BVHS class of 2026 (freshmen) are selling discount cards! These cards can be used an unlimited number of times at your favorite local places. Cards are $15. please email Pam Geerts at pgeerts@bureauvalley.net or Stephanie Christen at schristen@bureauvalley.net if interested.
Celebrating our season and these fantastic athletes at the Cross-Country awards banquet! Thanks to Café 129 for opening their doors to us, and to all the parents, administrators, and community members who made this a wonderful night after a wonderful season!

Just a reminder that BVHS will be hosting our annual Veterans Day Assembly in the Auditorium tomorrow at 8:00 am. Veterans, BV Family Members, and Community Members are welcome to join us. Coffee and donuts will be provided so come early and enjoy. Happy Veterans Day!
Physics student replicate the famous experiment of Galileo, using progressively steeper inclines to produce greater and greater accelerations. Extrapolation from the data allows the acceleration due to gravity for an object dropped directly downwards to be determined.
Newton's 3rd Law in action. When the weights are equal, the equal forces produce equal accelerations. With students of different weights, one moves fast and one moves slowly.
BVHS Athletic Activity Schedule Update: The BVHS volleyball banquet will be Wednesday, Nov. 9th in the MPR @ 6:00.
ALL volleyball players and parents are encouraged to attend!
Go Storm!
Congratulations to senior, bari saxophone player, Dale Faber on an outstanding performance with the ILMEA District 2 Band at Augustana College today! GO STORM!
Congrats to Elijah House on running a 16:44.6 at Detweiler Park this morning at the IHSA Class 1A Boys State Cross Country Finals. Elijah placed 59th in a field of 255 Class 1A boys runners! Congrats Elijah on an outstanding cross country career at BVHS!
Go Storm!
BVHS Cross Country Update: Today is the day for Elijah! He will be representing Bureau Valley at the IHSA State Finals @ Detweiler Park. The 1A Boys Final is scheduled to start at 10:00am. All of BV Nation is super proud of Elijah and wishes him the best of luck!

Driver’s Ed students learned some real-world skills that included map reading, finding a vehicle within a budget, and understood the hardest lesson where people rarely finish in 1st place when driving impaired.
The BVHS Child Care class will be hosting a fall-themed event for young Storm toddlers (Tiny Twisters) in the Bureau Valley communities on Tuesday, November 15th from 9:30-10:15 a.m. See the attached flyer for more information.
Congratulations to Josh for earning our Friday Challenge trophy for volleyball in Adapted PE! Josh demonstrated great sportsmanship and skills.
Also pictured is the APE class with their homemade “Amazing Lunch Bunch” flags. These students have formed some awesome friendships!
The average atomic mass of an element is a weighted average of the mass of the isotopes. Chemistry students are using simulated isotopes to determine the average mass of four different elements.
Students earning 150 points on their BV Rewards cards during the 1st quarter enjoyed ice cream sundaes at lunch today.
