FUTUREMED CLUB GUEST SPEAKER SERIES |
FUTUREMED CLUB GUEST SPEAKER SERIES |
Briarcliff High School’s FutureMed Club is launching a new recurring monthly Guest Speaker Series to help students explore careers in medicine, healthcare, life sciences, and beyond! We warmly invite our Briarcliff community members to take part - whether you’re a doctor, nurse, researcher, veterinarian, pharmacist, emergency medical services, or a professional working in any area of healthcare. Each session is very relaxed and conversational, lasting only about 20–30 minutes. No preparation is needed - just come share your story, what you do, and what inspired your career. Our students are genuinely eager to learn about different healthcare paths and hear directly from those working in the field. |

HS CAMPUS SAFETY Pleasantville Road and the BHS/BMS campus access road are very busy during arrival and dismissal times. Please help keep everyone safe by watching the stop lights and following the directions of the campus monitors as they direct traffic at the crosswalk and in the parking lot. Please also remember that we have STUDENT DRIVERS who are learning to drive, please be patient and give them a litte more time. They learn by example! Be mindful that students cross the street on Pleasantville Road as well as exit cars in the lower parking lot. Safety is everyone's concern; please be alert, drive slowly on campus, and be prepared to stop. |
