Industrial Fundamentals' student Nathan Elliott loads up his final project at BJSHS.
According to his teacher, Mr. Rich Uggen, Nathan used computer aided design software (see image below) to design a parade platform for his antique tractor. He created a bill of materials and ordered the steel he needed. Though not completed, what is impressive is his ability to cut and weld this much in only a few 40 minute work sessions.
Nice work, Nathan!

Our 6th graders at BIS kicked off their day with our friends from Science Central. They learned about the sharks and their internal systems during a dissection activity.

Seniors Peyton James and Ethan Gee show off this week's project. The baseball team’s step ladder they used to chase foul balls was falling apart. These Advanced Manufacturing students reverse engineered the old ladder and constructed this one to take its place.
Nice work!

The students in Mrs. Yvette Rouch's CNA class at BJSHS were busy showing some love to the nurses at IU Health Blackford with some personalized sidewalk chalk messages! To all the nurses we know and love, THANK YOU! WE APPRECIATE YOU AND ALL YOU DO! ❤️
