District News
Thank You BirdieLight
Thank you to Bexley resident and local physician, Beth Weinstock, for sharing her powerful story Thursday evening.

Beth's son, Eli, a 2019 Bexley grad, died last spring in his college apartment from unintentional fentanyl ingestion.

Beth created a fentanyl awareness nonprofit called BirdieLight after Eli's passing. She and her family are committed to preventing this tragedy from happening to other families.

To learn more about BirdieLight, please visit www.birdielight.org.

Jason Reynolds Visits BCS
New York Times bestselling author, Jason Reynolds, visited the district yesterday. He spoke to middle and high school students about his journey as a writer. Juniors Mason, Madison, and Lydia joined him on stage and did a wonderful job as moderators. We are grateful for the time he spent with our students!

Thank you to Bexley Education for their generous funding, and thank you to the District Climate & Multicultural Committee and BMS Librarian Rachel Riegler for their efforts to make this event happen.
March 2 at Bexley High School
March 2 will not be a typical instructional day for high school students.

That morning all of our juniors will report to BHS as usual and will take the ACT test. There will not be regularly scheduled classes for students in grades 9, 10, or 12. However, students in grades 9, 10, and 12 are strongly encouraged to participate in one of the many interest-based learning opportunities available that day. During the morning testing time, we will invite our 9th and 10th-grade students to sign up for career shadowing experiences across the city hosted by members of the Bexley community. Some shadowing experiences will be offered in the afternoon as well.

During the afternoon, we are inviting students of all grades to participate in the first-ever BHS Senior Takeover. Members of our senior class are organizing learning experiences in a wide range of subjects that they will present to their BHS classmates. Click here to see the catalog of the different experiences we are offering.
