During last night's school board meeting, Dr. Kathryn Ludwig was honored as her term draws to a close on December 31.
On behalf of the students and staff of BCS, thank you for your service, Dr. Ludwig. We will miss your intelligence, empathy, and humor as a member of the board. Best wishes in all your future endeavors. Remember, once a Bruin, always a Bruin!

Check out the outstanding creations in Mrs. Jennifer Gallatin's class at BJSHS! Students in her 7th grade STEAM class designed their own carnival rides that included swings and a carousel! Way to go, Bruins!

The Grinch has been spotted a few times this week at BPS. He's been a popular character with the students. Yesterday was the 2nd grade Grinch Day celebration. The kids loved having him there and the Grinch even surprised Mr. Campbell & kindergarten. (The Grinch was portrayed by Nick Aulbach, son of 2nd grade teacher Mrs. Cristi Aulbach. Thank you, Nick!)

Best wishes, Mrs. Martin, as you begin this exciting next chapter of your life . Enjoy your family and your home! Thank you for helping to feed the students (and staff) of Blackford County Schools! ❤️


Ho! Ho! Hope you have a great Friday, Bruins! Students on Bus 217 were greeted by a jolly old elf today on their way to school today. Thank you, Santa Ted, for your kindness to our students! 🎅

The BPS Elf is at it again! This time he's wreaking havoc with the Christmas tree! What a naughty elf! He'd better turn that tree (and behavior) around or there will be coal in his stocking for sure!
Look what he did to staff photos in the hallway!
