Bruceton School

This Friday is 8th grade night for our boys and girls basketball teams. We'll recognize our 8th grade athletes at approximately 7:00 between the boys and girls varsity games.

This is the last week for students to submit design ideas for our official school flag! They can turn them into their teacher or the office.

There will be a mandatory meeting for any boys interested in playing middle school baseball. Any boys in 6th, 7th, and 8th grade must have a parent or guardian attend as well. Students are not eligible to play for the middle school SSAC-sanctioned team if they are participating on travel teams or any other teams (youth league included) during the regular SSAC season. The meeting will be in the cafeteria this Thursday at 6:00 pm.

The thoughts and prayers of all Bulldog Nation are with the young athlete from Trinity who was injured at tonight's game. We hope and pray for a speedy recovery.

Last week was the closest to a normal week of school we've had in a while. Unfortunately we didn't have any homerooms with zero absences and zero tardies. Hopefully this week we can give out some Bruce the Bulldog statues!

Our student council food drive wraps up this Friday. We'd appreciate any donations of non-perishable food items to help restock the Bruceton Food Pantry after the holidays.

Parents who drop off PHS students to catch the bus in the morning to the high school are being asked by businesses across the street from Bruceton School's bus lot to not park in their business parking spaces. It is blocking their customers' access in the morning. PHS students being dropped off can use our parent drop-off line and PHS students can walk through the breezeway and by the playground to get to the bus lot. Again, people are not to park at neighboring businesses to drop-off students taking the morning buses from our bus lot to PHS.
