Have a wonderful Fall Break, Bruins!

Oh, our BPS Preschool students know how to party! To celebrate their Fun Fall Party, students taste tested red, yellow and green apples, made their own caramel apple treats, drank apple cider, and painted and decorated pumpkins!

It's been an exciting day at BJSHS! Our students got to tour and ride in a Blackhawk Helicopter for an experience they will never forget! A number of students were able to ride in the helicopter as well as learn more about the JROTC program and what it has to offer. Thank you to MSGT Rick Kauffman and Major Tim Cummins for making this opportunity available to our students!
