Our BPS Cubs would like to remind you to mark your calendars for Kindergarten Roundup 2025! Please help us spread the word!
Just a reminder that the annual BJSHS Teddy Bear Toss is Feb 14 during the halftime of the Bruins Boys Varsity game. Please bring in new, or very gently used, stuffed toys to be tossed. These are donated to children who are ill, suffered a loss, or experiencing a crisis.
New this year - we are also accepting soft pet toys and blankets to be donated to the shelter! Be part of the fun and help a great cause!

We love to have special guests read to our students! This week, the preschool students in Ms. Kiley Eppard's class at BPS were read to by one of our own first grade students- Miss Junie!
Great job, Miss Junie! We're proud of you!

Do you want to hear something really amazing?
BCS wants to say a big THANK YOU to Amanda Slentz (Abigail Slentz's mom!) Amanda has donated 4 gallons (32 pints) of blood! In doing so, Amanda has saved up to 96 lives! Wow!
You, too, can be a hero like Amanda by going to Versiti.org and signing up for the next BJSHS Blood Drive in April. Be sure to choose the Blackford Jr.-Sr. High School location. Not only will you be saving lives, you will be helping one of our very deserving seniors earn a health careers scholarship.

Here's your chance to make a difference in the Bruins United Program at BJSHS. Please donate! (Here's why...)
On Saturday, February 1st, the Unified Bruins will be participating in the Polar Plunge. The funds raised will help the Special Olympics and our school reach the goal of being a Champions Together school. We are sitting at $700. Our goal is to raise $3000. We at least need to raise $1500 to meet the requirement of being a Champions Together School. Each member of the team needs to reach $100 to take the plunge. Would you consider making a donation to help us reach our goal? Use the following link

About halfway down the page, there is a section that says Support a Fundraiser. Please type in Unified Bruins. Click on our name and you will be directed to our page. There you can support the entire team or a member of the team with a donation.
If you have any questions please direct them to Linda Wallace,lwallace@blackfordschools.orgf or Tyler McDonald, tmcdonald@blackfordschools.org
Thanks for your support!

It's hard to believe that 100 days of school have passed! Nowhere does that time fly faster than with our BPS students. They have learned so much in the past 100 days that it has aged them! You won't believe it!
(And if you think the students have aged, you should see staff!) 😉
