As we are halfway through April and nearing the end of the school year, it is that time again to nominate an "Educator of the Year" for each building. Anyone can be considered an "educator" when they have a positive impact on the students and school whether it is in the areas of academics, athletics, or social/emotional growth. Students, staff, parents, and community members are welcome to submit this form. We want everyone's input. The deadline to submit a nomination is April 30th. Here is the link to submit nominations: https://forms.gle/8GQAd9PTvnxmTMeTA

Jr. High Academic Awards Assembly will be on May 21st at 12:30pm.

We are raising funds to help cover students outstanding school lunch debt. Every dollar makes a difference - whether it's $5 or $50, your generosity is greatly appreciated. Please know that all students eat daily whether they have the funds or not. We always take care of our students!

Starting MONDAY 4/14/25 Route 95 Morning pickup time for students will be moved up 10 Minutes due to the growing number of stops. This is to keep morning drop off times at schools the same. Thank You for your cooperation. Sincerely, Brookland Transportation.

Summer Sale!

Good insight about life that's worth reflecting on: The first 25 years you measure success with grades, only to realize that the real value is in learning to learn and critical thinking. The second 25 years you measure success by how much money you have made, only to realize that how you spend your time and with whom, is most important. The third 25 years is by how many people you helped along the way. Did you leave everyone and everything better than when you found them? Do you have family and friends that love and care about you? #bearcatsunited

Parents and Guardians, Bus Route 79 still has sections that are underwater. The bus will not travel through these unsafe areas this afternoon. Route 97 is clear for buses to pass. Thank you!

If you received a text or voicemail today regarding your child's lunch status changing. That change was made due to your student(s) being on the list provided to the district from the state. Most likely, your child(ren) receives Medicaid. If you have any questions, please reach out to Wendy Pannell at wpannell@bpsbearcats.com

Parents and guardians, Bus routes 79 and 97 have areas that are underwater making it unsafe for the buses to travel through. If this area is still underwater in the morning, a bus will not be able to pick up your children. If you cannot get your child to school safely, please call your child's building, and we will excuse their absence. Your child's safety is of utmost importance to all of us. Be careful!
