More scenes from the BJSHS Advanced Art class visit the Blackford Arts Place to check out the Regional Student Art Show. The show runs through April 10 with an Awards Reception on April 10.
Thanks to the generous support of the Beta Xi Chapter of Tri Kappa in Hartford City, students in Mrs. Sydney Walter's Advanced Art classes had the opportunity to take a field trip to the Blackford County Arts Center. While on the trip, students viewed the Regional Student Art Exhibit, engaged in meaningful discussion about the works displayed, and created a collaborative artwork with students from Southern Wells. Students created their own personal stamps, which were used to make artworks featuring 4 areas of the fine arts- art, music, dance, and theater.

At the end of last week, our BJSHS junior high students had a fun field day for those who passed the last nine weeks. Students enjoyed a 3 v 3 basketball tournament, dodgeball vs the Hartford City Police Department, a movie, smash cart tourney and more! The event ended with students who had As and Bs having their names drawn to pie a teacher in the face!
