It was a beautiful morning at BPS as a stunning maple tree was planted in honor of Jensen Jones, a BCS student who unexpectedly passed away in the spring. A ceremony was held to dedicate the tree as Jensen's family looked on. Thank you, Hartford City Greenscape, for the tree.

There have been dinosaur sightings today at BPS! From what we've seen, the dinosaur seems friendly enough... and might even answer to Principal Campbell. We recommend approaching the dinosaur with caution... (It's been a long week!) 😄

BJSHS had their Champions Together Convocation on Thursday. Students and staff had a blast learning about Unified Sports, which allows all students to be a part of a team and compete against other schools, with guest speaker Craig Turnquist. Our students took risks today, including a big hair contest and a dance contest. We also got the chance to hear the impact Unified Sports has had on four of our students. Unified Bowling starts in January and Unified Track starts in March. Join the fun!
