Greetings Boca Ciega Pirates,

My name is Jennifer Gil and I am honored by the privilege and responsibility to serve as the next principal of The Boca Ciega High School.  In the short time, I have been on campus, I have had an opportunity to meet several teacher leaders and students. I would like to thank everyone for their warm welcome and support. Boca Ciega High School is an amazing place to be and I am excited about the year to come.

I also would be remiss if I did not acknowledge former principal Mr. Mike Vigue. Mr. Vigue assumed the role of principal at a critical time in the history of Boca Ciega High School. His leadership transformed our great school out from under state oversight to an AVID National Demonstration High School with a robust Pre-AP and Advanced Placement program. Mr. Vigue was recently recognized on August 20^th by the City of Gulfport with the Spirit of Gulfport Award for his hard work and dedication to Boca Ciega High School.  I am grateful to have been able to celebrate his recognition along with many Boca Ciega High School teachers and staff.  It is my hope that The Boca Ciega High School will continue to grow its greatness while honoring its past.

Looking ahead, we are so excited to welcome returning students and new students alike to the 2021-22 school year.  Student schedules are now available to view in Focus and we encourage all students and families to review their classes.  Boca Ciega High School counselors will be on campus next week Monday-Thursday from 8 a.m. – 2 p.m. to assist students with schedule changes if needed.  

New Student Orientation will be held on Wednesday, August 4^th at 6 p.m. in the auditorium. There will be a welcome presentation followed by an opportunity for students and families to tour the campus, purchase items from the school store, buy locks for their locker and visit with the many BCHS club sponsors and athletic coaches. It’s an exciting time to be a Pirate! We hope to see you soon!

Ms. Gil
