What a gorgeous fall day to celebrate the most improved score in Exact Path at BJSHS! Congratulations to Mrs. Shelby Capper's 7th grade 5th period Language Arts class for all your hard work! Enjoy your walk, Bruins!
We regret to inform you that due to a loss of available players on Monday night that the JV Football game scheduled for Monday 10-12-2020 has been cancelled.
JH Football will still play as scheduled. Start time is 5:00pm.
Fans,
We wanted to share with you that on Wednesday, October 7, 2020 Grant County changed it's COVID status from Yellow to Orange. What this means is that many venues may be changing their mask policies. Be prepared as we travel to other venues (and here at home too if situations warrant) to find more stringent mask policies. Eastbrook has already updated their policy and it states, in regards to spectators that, everyone will wear a mask at all times. Families may sit together but there needs to be 6 feet between you and anyone not living in your home. Continuing to follow mask policies and guidelines will ensure that fans get to continue to come to events and support the athletes here and at other venues as well.
Thank you for your cooperation

Wow! Hard to believe Fall Break is almost here! (Oct. 12-16.)
Thanks to the kind generosity of the Blackford County Community Foundation, Community and Family Services, Grace United Methodist Church, Purdue Extension Blackford County, and the Good Seed Initiative, the Pit Stop in Hartford City will provide free lunches to families in need during Fall Break. If this is your family, please stop by the Pit-Stop to pick up lunch from 11 a.m. to 2 p.m. Students are encouraged to be present when picking up the lunches.
A friendly reminder from Assistant Superintendent Greg Roach regarding transportation:
As we start the last week of our first grading period, I want to thank you for your understanding and cooperation in helping us have a great start to our school year. I want to remind you that due to COVID-19 safety concerns and the possible need to contact trace, we are unable to approve one-time, non-permanent bus changes for students. Students need to ride their assigned bus or have an alternate option for transportation. I know this can create hardships for parents at times, but we need to do all that we can to keep our students safe and this is a measure that is necessary.
Thank you in advance for your help in our efforts to keep the students of BCS safe.
