Just a friendly reminder that Wednesday, October 22 is Parent-Teacher Conference Day at BCS. There will be no school for students on that day. This is a great opportunity to find out how your student is doing so far in the school year!

Oh, you know it's an exciting day at BPS when the Hartford City Fire Department shows up (in the non-emergency way!) Members of HCFD were on hand to share fire safety tips with our youngest students for Fire Prevention Day. We thank the HCFD for all they do!

Blackford County Schools will be conducting a Surplus Auction that begins October 20 with viewing and bidding. Be sure to check back. (Items will be added throughout the week.)

BJSHS 2D Art students spent the week leading up to Fall Break learning about Plein Air painting. Guest artist Morris Gibbons demonstrated his process for creating a plein air painting and students spent the following days creating their own.

This week the students will participate in the Arts Place "Paint Out on the Square" in downtown Hartford City. Look for more details about the event in future posts!

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!
