Welcome Letter
An introduction to the 2015-16 school year
By Charlie Beauregard
Chieftain Staff
The 2015-2016 school year is well
underway. The Chieftain staff is overdue
in officially welcoming you all into what
will hopefully be a spectacular year.
To the staff and faculty, we hope you
may use your skills to enhance ours. As
students, we are open-minded and ready
to learn. To the Seniors, we would like to
wish you luck in your final year. We trust
you to lead us and be a great example
for the student body. To the Juniors, we
encourage you to work hard in what is
the most important academic year of high
school. To the Sophomores, we urge you
to grow in all that you learned from your
Freshman year and to enhance your skills
in all areas. And to the Freshman, we welcome you to the brotherhood that is the
Band of Brothers. We highly recommend
joining clubs to get to know other students
and teachers. We hope you enjoy your
time here as you take a step into a new era
of your lives.
As the school year begins, Brother
Rice experiences some serious changes
in the classroom. The new iPads have
B ROTHE R R I C E H I G H S C HO O L C H I E F TA I N
certainly made a big impression. For the
most part, school seems to be running
smoothly in the midst of change. As the
school year develops, we at the Chieftain
look forward to following and bringing
you updates on the new iPad system.
As the school sees change, so does the
Chieftain. This year, the Chieftain has six
new faces and three returning staff members. Coming along with the new staff is
a new Chieftain masthead. Thanks to new
staff member, Ryan Israel, we have enhanced our design with a new nameplate.
We will be distributing the Chieftain
via Brother Rice email again, and all issues
will be posted on www.brrice.edu. We are
becoming increasingly digital.
If you have interest in contributing to
the Chieftain, be it a guest article, question,
comment or concern, please contact us
at [email protected]. We want to hear
your opinion. Another fun way to interact with us is to follow us on Twitter @
BRChieftain. And yes, we will follow you
back.
We look forward to an amazing
school year. Good luck to everyone this
year in all that life may bring you.
