Last Thursday, students and parents gathered in Singleton Gym to celebrate our JAG students and initiate officers at the 2025 JAG Initiation and Installation Ceremony.
As explained by freshman Gabby Harris, "JAG (Jobs for America's Graduates) is a program in our school district that helps students become ready for the real world when we graduate."
JAG focuses on giving students the opportunity to develop soft and hard skills that may not otherwise be taught in their core classes. It's about fostering those traits that will help them succeed in professional environments. How to properly present yourself, what language to use, etc.
If you spend any time at all around these students, it's impossible to miss the fundamental impact the JAG program has on many of them. From their handshakes and confident eye contact to the professionalism of their emails, the degree to which they apply these skills outside of the classroom is astounding.
Susie Harris and Nikki McHenry spearhead these programs with stewardship and integrity like you wouldn't believe, teaching our students lessons they'll carry with them throughout their professional life. We deeply appreciate the work they’re doing.
It was great to see this program recognized and celebrated at the ceremony, along with all the students, staff, and community members who make JAG what it is. Congratulations to all those initiated officers, and thank you to everyone who helped make this event such a success.

📅 October 1st & 2nd

📍 Conkin Gym
Students must have up-to-date sports physicals to be able to play.

The Berea College Fields were buzzing with life as crowds lined up to watch the students pass by, and our Pirates were right at home on their home course. Amazing performance from all our Pirate athletes. Great work, team!













The competition was fierce, the energy was electric, and the games were absolutely nail-biting. For most of the tournament, 8th grade dominated, taking down 7th, 9th, and 10th grade in an unprecedented win streak. There were tears, and cheers, but at the end of the day, they were no match for our seniors, who rose to the top and took home the gold.
Nothing like a mid-day Dodgeball match to build comroadery and get us all excited to come to school. Because when you miss school, you miss out. Way to go team, let's go Pirates!










Who needs a backpack when you've got a mini fridge? This morning the halls of BCS were filled with all sorts of unusual objects being lugged from class to class for Anything But a Backpack Day. Shoutout to our Pirates for showing up with imagination and school spirit. We wouldn’t expect anything less!










There will be an open gym on Sept. 29th from 5-7pm
There will be a parent meeting Oct. 1st from 6-7pm
