We're excited to share info about this year's Back to School Carnival! What a great way to combine free school supplies and a whole lot of fun! Mark your calendars!


The Class of 2025 field trip events scheduled for August 4th and 5th have been cancelled due to low number of students interested in attending the event.

(3 of 3) Direct questions to Kristi Shipley or Savannah Ireland at BJSHS.


(2 of 3) You must pre-register by August 11th, to give us time to seed the brackets. Teen and adult brackets will be played. We will have hamburgers and hot dogs, chips, and drinks available for purchase, and the dessert truck Sprinkled will be there!


(1 of 3) Want to have fun and hang on to the last thread of summer? The Lady Bruin volleyball team is hosting a cornhole tournament in the high school parking lot on Friday, August 13 at 5:00 pm.

Here's one more reason that's it's #BetterAtBlackford...
Did you know that during the 2020-2021 school year, our dual credit partnership with Ivy Tech Community College allowed BJSHS students to accumulate over 787 credit hours and saved our families over $117,000 in tuition?


Blackford County Schools has a wide variety of unused tables, chairs, file cabinets, TVs, teacher’s desks, and SO much more currently available for sale!
Here’s the important part, we need this stuff gone and in a hurry!
