Cadets and students from BHS have arrived at LSU campus to take part in the Louisiana Youth Seminar (LYS). At LYS, students are referred to as "delegates," as they represent their school and their community at the LYS experience. At LYS, participants are assigned to one of 14 "home groups" with other delegates from throughout the state. Delegates live in LSU dorms for the week of LYS.

Several Bogalusa High School students participated in the Washington Parish Youth Coalition Summer Leadership Training held at Adapt, Inc. Students worked in small groups, voicing their concerns and discussing new adventures for the upcoming school year.

On Tuesday, nine of our young men from BHS attended the Black Male Summit hosted by the University of Louisiana System. This was Bogalusa’s first time attending, as our Superintendent, Dr. Byron Hurst, wanted to ensure that we had representation from BHS. The students learned about the importance of ACT, maintaining above-average grades, professionalism, FASFA, and many other new laws that will ultimately affect young men all over the nation. The students spent the day, along with Mr. Chad Harry and Coach Eddie Walker, going to college stations and symposiums about accountability and productivity. Our students earned many prizes, and one student, Steven Franklin, was awarded a Scholarship to Louisiana Tech University. We would like to thank Superintendent Hurst for his dedication to pouring into the young scholars in our community. Also, we appreciate the support of Ms. Kewanda August, Mr. Chad Harry, Mrs. Katasha August-Robinson, Ms. Monisha Hawthorne, and Mr. Eddie Walker for their dedication in ensuring this launch of many great experiences for our students.
