As Bishop Lynch High School embarks on an upcoming week of Homecoming activities and traditions to celebrate the blessings of our community and alumni, we will participate in a unique school-wide service project to remember those in our communities who are less fortunate.
On October 3, the entire student-body and faculty will work together to build “Blessing Bags” for the homeless during the special events portion of the Founders Day festivities. Each Bishop Lynch family has been invited to participate in the collection of goods which will later be assembled into small bags to donate to a local homeless shelter.
Schedule of Events:
9:35 a.m. All-school speaker: Stephen Howard, BL Class of 1988
10:45 a.m. Dismissal for Founders Day activities
11 a.m. – 2 p.m. Students will rotate throughout the day (lunch, service project and activities)
2:20 p.m. All-school Homecoming Pep Rally
