As BCS continues planning for the first day of school on August 5, we want to know what our parents are thinking. Please take just a moment to complete the Parent (Planning for Reopening) questionnaire below. We value your input!

Work continues at BCS in preparation of our return to school. Topics addressed by the Reopening Committee include: operations, health protocols, social distancing, and transportation. There is much work to do, but we are up for the challenge! The first day of school is August 5!
Attention, Northside and Blackford Intermediate School neighbors: Due to recent theft and vandalism at roofing projects currently underway at both Northside Elementary and BIS (former junior high school), the Hartford City Police Department will be increasing night-time patrols. If you see any suspicious activity on the school property or have any information regarding these incidents of theft and vandalism, we ask that you contact HCPD at 765.348.4819. (Thanks!)
Congratulations to our latest 2020 BJSHS graduate- Josh Jennings! Josh will soon be leaving for the U.S. Air Force and we wish him much success! #BruinPride
Today, the Indiana Department of Education released a guidance document for schools to utilize in planning for the fall. The Blackford County Schools Reopening Committee will review the guidance and develop a reopening plan. We anticipate the guidance will be updated throughout the summer, so we ask our parents and community to be patient as we determine the best path for the safe reopening of BCS. Please stay tuned to BCS Skyward email and social media for further updates.
-Superintendent Chad Yencer
We miss our students. We can’t wait to see you at BIS in the Fall!
