(1 of 2) JSHS students…We are starting an esports team. Competitions will be on Tuesday, Wednesday, and Thursday afternoons at 4 o’clock. We plan on doing a fall season for sure, we’re not sure about spring yet. All students should have received a survey in their email.
As you can imagine, there's nothing quite like the first day of school.
After getting everyone to school, now we need to get them home. Please be patient for school dismissal and buses home. Chances are good, for a few days anyway, that your student may arrive home late.
Welcome back to all of our BCS students! We're wishing both students and staff a fabulous school year!
#BetterAtBlackford
Just a friendly reminder, masks are mandatory on all BCS buses.
Mask up, Bruins!
There is one more school supply we are asking our students and parents to bring for our first day tomorrow and that is PATIENCE!
Please remember that the first few days of school are challenging for just about everyone. There are bound to be a few hiccups along the way. We ask for your understanding as we get back to work at BCS.
The countdown is on!
Superintendent Chad Yencer welcomed returning and new staff during the Back to School Breakfast at BJSHS. During the meeting, Mr. Yencer congratulated MSG Rick Kauffman for being named National JROTC Instructor of the Year!

Mr. Roe has sent a welcome back message to all BJSHS students this morning. Please let our Bruins know they have some “first week of school” information waiting for them in their inbox.

Welcome to Blackford County Schools! It's another busy day as we welcome new staff members to the district. Hard to believe we're less than a week away from the first day of school!
#BetterAtBlackford
Let's be clear-
Per CDC mandate, masks are required on all public transportation, including school buses. ALL students in grades kindergarten through 12th, bus drivers and aides (unless there is a medical exemption) are REQUIRED to wear masks on school buses.
This is a change from last school year for our BCS families (and us) and we want to make sure everyone is aware.
Hotel fun! Love how many of our kids played cards and socialized together. Great group of students and parents!
Fun trip to DC- so glad we got it in. Thank you students and parents!
Night tour continues- Jefferson Memorial and the Washington Monument.
