Here are more great photos of our students donating blood taken by BJSHS junior Kaybree Norton during this week's Blood Drive.
Thanks again, Bruins!
#BruinProud #Versiti
Thank you to the staff, students, and community members who participated in the recent BJSHS blood drive hosted by Blackford High School HOSA (Health Occupations Students Association).
According to Versiti representative Megan Borgmann, "At today’s Blood Drive, we saw 71 donors come out and attempt to donate. We were able to collect 50 units of blood. That is 150 patients impacted. 150 children, mothers, fathers, and community members that get to spend Christmas with their loved ones thanks to your help and amazing donors. THANK YOU! ❤
"Blood has a shelf life of 42 days, and there is no substitute. As the primary blood supplier for our local hospitals, I cannot say thank you enough for helping us save the lives of local patients. You are a lifesaver, and we are grateful for your support of our mission."
The next HOSA drive is scheduled for Tuesday, February 1st. Reserve your spot now, and save a life! 👇

Donors outside of BJSHS are encouraged to register for time slots available from 3 p.m. to 7 p.m. to allow for students and staff to take the earlier reservations.
We are Bruin PROUD!

To cap off a lesson learning about various dog breeds in Ms. Shelbi Louck's Animal Science class at BJSHS, students had to make a breed replica for the dog show held in class today!
Allie Clamme's dog was selected Best of Show by judges Todd Hill and Amy Coons. 🐾
Our Kindergarten students in Mrs. Jessica Barker's class and Mrs. Katie Barnes' class at Montpelier Elementary got together today to celebrate a Charlie Brown Thanksgiving Feast. By the looks of the photos, a good time was had by all!
