While yesterday marked the last day of school for students, today is the last day for our teachers. To celebrate, BCS held the annual End of School Breakfast at BJSHS. Special thanks was given to all the departments that keep BCS running throughout the school year such as transportation, maintenance, custodial, food service, nursing, office support, teaching assistants, our teachers, and of course, our administration. It really does take a village to help educate the students of Blackford County.
During the breakfast, service pins were presented and the following retirees were recognized for their years of service: Jodi Bacon, elementary teacher, 21 years; Rhonda Cousins, custodian, 25 years; Major Tim Cummins, JROTC Instructor, 9 years; Terri Deavers, custodian, 30 years; Teresa Henderson, attendance assistant, 17 years; Dave Smith, bus driver, 43 years; and Linda Wallace, Special Ed Teacher, 31 years. Congratulations to all our BCS retirees!
