A Veterans Day poster features a gray background with a pattern of light gray stars. At the top, a dark gray silhouette of a soldier saluting is visible. Below the soldier, three stars are aligned horizontally: a red star on the left, a white star in the center, and a blue star on the right. In the middle of the poster, a rectangular American flag is displayed. Below the flag, the text "HONORING THOSE WHO SERVED" is written in white, followed by "HAPPY VETERANS DAY" also in white. In the bottom right corner, a black silhouette of a graduating figure with a cap and gown holds a diploma, and to its right, the letters "MCPS" are stacked vertically.

Huge congratulations to the Bear Necessities team on a successful grand opening and ribbon-cutting ceremony! We were thrilled to host the Montgomery County Chamber of Commerce to celebrate this milestone.

This store is entirely student-led and operated, giving our BHS students hands-on experience that goes beyond the classroom. Each student is assigned a critical role, learning real-world skills as a manager, HR specialist, marketing and promotions lead, finance and budgeting expert, merchandiser, or customer service rep.
