Our second grade classes at BPS had Grinch Day on December 19. We watch the original Dr. Seuss cartoon, read the book How the Grinch Stole Christmas, played Grinch Bingo, did a science experiment that showed the Grinch’s heart growing, did a Grinch Scoot while solving math problems, and made Grinch masks.

There's going to be another banner hanging in the BJSHS gym! Members of the Bruins Unified sports team(s), both past and present, were on hand at the school board meeting Tuesday evening to reveal their latest banner. The BJSHS program received NATIONAL recognition at being a Champion School and and we couldn't be more BruinProud of our students and their coaches, Mrs. Linda Wallace and Mr. Tyler McDonald! If you've never been to a Unified sports activity, we invite you to join us! Students participate in flag football, bowling, and track and field throughout the school year. Come out and support these amazing athletes!

The BJSHS Lady Bruins Basketball program is doing a shoe drive fundraiser.

The program will be collecting shoes beginning now through January.
Shoes collected will earn the program money for every pound collected.

The very kind folks from Cornerstone Community Church of the Nazarene in Montpelier gifted each of our BPS 1st graders with a scarf, gloves, and candy cane! (just in the St. Nick of time! It's cold out there!)
They generously do this every year and it is so appreciated! ❤️
It was a big day for Colten Q during the BIS 6th grade fieldtrip to Ball State University today. During a visit to a BSU basketball game, he was selected to try and make a free throw! Talk about performing under pressure! Way to go, Colten!
