How much fun is this? Students in Mrs. Katie Barnes' at BPS kicked off their last full week as first graders with glow day! According to Mrs. Barnes, "The kids have worked so hard this year and I truly couldn’t be more proud of them. We are having different theme days this week to celebrate all of their hard work this year!" Keep up the good work, Cubs! #BetterAtBlackford
