Division IV CIF State Cross Country Champion

After an amazing season, our Girls Volleyball team is beginning their CIF journey this Thursday at home vs. Rubidoux High School. Be sure to congratulate them when you see them. Since it is a CIF game tickets for the game must be purchased online, and we will not be able to accept any cash. Also, we are in need of a couple of teachers willing to be there for supervision on what will be a great evening. Let me know if you are interested. A QR code with the link to purchase tickets is attached. Go Bears!!!

Remember to sign up for the Bear Valley Unified School District App for the latest and greatest updates from our school and the Bear Valley District Office. You can download it at the Apple Store or the Google Play Store. Go to settings and select whichever schools you would like messages.

Sophomores and Juniors! You can now sign up for the PSAT at the ASB Office through Ms. Newkirk. This test allows students to get a feel for the SAT in a low stakes manner. Only you, parents and your counselor will see your test results. The test is $18 and will take place on Tuesday, October 26th beginning first thing in the morning. We will likely test in the cafeteria, but the venue will be confirmed later.

2021-2022 Topic:

Has the United States lived up to its pledge of “liberty and justice for all”? Would requiring the study of diversity, equity and inclusion in a high school setting help ensure liberty and justice for all?

The Student Toolkit is ready to distribute to interested contestants and contains all the pertinent info retarding the contest, as well as the application packet.



We are happy to present the topic, rules and speech tips to interested students and classes, either in person or via Zoom. We are looking forward to hearing your students voice their opinions on this timely topic.

Introducing Big Bear High School's new Aviation elective, as part of our Career and Technical Education (CTE) program. Did you know there is an increasing demand for aviation careers, including pilots, air traffic controllers, aviation mechanics, aviation engineers, drone pilots and drone engineers? AOPA's curriculum introduces students to aviation, while offering pathways for them to begin working on a drone and/or private pilot license. This Science, Technology, Engineering and Math (STEM) curriculum is aligned with Common Core State Standards and Next Generation Science Standards, making meaningful connections between high school subjects and real world applications. BBHS has also ordered Redbird simulators so our students can practice skills needed for flying.

We have put together a board in the main hallway of Big Bear High School for Alumni Bears that are or have served in the military. We are trying to uses their official military pick with the flag behind them. We also need the year of graduation from BBHS. They can be sent to patty_barr@bearvalleyusd.org Thanks for all your help. Thank you for your service and lets honor our graduates that are the 1%.

Check it out tons of resources.
