So far, 2020 has been a tough year on everyone; what with the spread of the Covid-19 pandemic throughout the world and the dire economic situation in Lebanon.
As such, and in an unprecedented move, the OSA Administrative Committee had to take the difficult decision of postponing the much anticipated 29th International Convention this year.
Unfortunately, soon after, Lebanon suffered another heartbreaking setback when the horrific explosion took place in the Beirut Port on August 4, 2020.
Our thoughts and prayers continue to go out to all those who have lost loved ones, businesses and livelihoods because of this disaster.
Having said that, we firmly believe that the Lebanese people will thrive once again and that Lebanon will prevail against all obstacles.
Both the OSA and BHS have great hope in this country’s resilience, and will continue to strive for a better future for our students and community.
One way to keep hope alive is to continue the tradition of publishing our annual yearbook filled with news, stories and photos of former BHS students and staff from around the globe, so that we keep our Old Scholars connected and keep the OSA office in constant interaction with the membership worldwide.
Over the years, this publication has played an important role in telling our stories and recording our memories. It has become a cherished keepsake for us, our families and for the entire school community.
This year, the OSA Yearbook 2020 will be accessible online via the link below as well as on our website and all social media platforms.
