Dear BCS families,
February was an action-packed month!
We celebrated Black History Month in each of our schools in a variety of ways.
Students were able to engage in an African American author read-in. Thanks to technology, parents were able to read virtually to many classes.
Research projects and interactive displays helped students learn about the contributions African Americans made to this country.
The district's first annual Black History Month Poetry Contest received over 500 entries. The middle school and high school winners were recognized at the February Board Meeting. The first-place winners from BMS and BHS read their poems aloud.
Students in kindergarten through 8th grade submitted entries to the Young Georgia Authors’ writing competition. We have some very creative writers in the district.
Our Wolf Pack Players won Region and State One Act, while our swim team, dance team, and sideline and competition cheer squads continued to accomplish excellence.
Our high school wrestling team brought home two state championships, and the girls basketball team continues to progress towards the state championship.
For a month with only 28 days, our students and staff have made every day count.
Please stay safe and continue taking steps to keep our students in school.
Remember to Wash up Mask up and Back up.
Don't forget, we have a two-day break on March 11 and 12. We also have an early release day on March 19 for parent/teacher conferences.
I appreciate the care and attention all of our staff, students, and parents continue to devote to this very unique school year.
Thank you all and Go Wolves!
Dr. Robert Downs
Superintendent
