It's our third graders' favorite days of the school year- Taste of Thai Day!
It's a family affair. Mark and Pradit Dawson have made it a long-standing tradition to visit (their sister) Mrs. Carma Reidy and her class to share Pradit's Thai culture, school experiences, and cuisine. Thanks to the generosity of Mrs. Reidy's kind volunteers, all the BIS 3rd graders get to take part in this amazing learning experience!
ขอบคุณ to everyone who helped make this day happen for our students!

Thank you to our friends at American Woodmark for the very kind donation to the Camp Invention program. You can see from the big smile on Mrs. Kylee Redford's face (center) that this donation is much appreciated. Thank you, American Woodmark!

Do you want to hear something really amazing?
BCS wants to say a big THANK YOU to Amanda Slentz (Abigail Slentz's mom!) Amanda has donated 4 gallons (32 pints) of blood! In doing so, Amanda has saved up to 96 lives! Wow!
You, too, can be a hero like Amanda by going to Versiti.org and signing up for the next BJSHS Blood Drive in April. Be sure to choose the Blackford Jr.-Sr. High School location. Not only will you be saving lives, you will be helping one of our very deserving seniors earn a health careers scholarship.
