What a sweet way to kick off our 2024 Staff Appreciation Week! Thank you to our BVE PTO and BVJH Student Council for delivering Hurts Donuts this morning!
Yesterday, our 8th grade students visited the Whiteside Area Career Center (WACC) to see what opportunities are available to them in high school!
If you are wondering who were some of the characters at our 8th Grade Living Wax Museum, Mrs. Schoff made this video of our students bringing some historical figures to life. Enjoy and great job to our 8th graders.

BVJH had a special visitor on Wednesday organized by our amazing BVJH ELA department. Guadalupe Garcia McCall who wrote "Summer of the Mariposas" was able to come and speak with all our students about her book. The book is part of our 6th grade curriculum so all our current students have read it. Some students were even able to eat lunch with her and have their books signed by her! Thank you to our ELA department for organizing such a fantastic event for our students to experience.

Great work by our scholastic bowl team this year, as we came up short in the regional last night. We want to wish Joe the best of luck in 8th grade, and a special thank you to Mrs. Rediger's 34 years of service for our teams!

Good luck to our #1 seeded Scholastic Bowl team tonight in their IESA regional.
In celebration of Earth Day, sixth and seventh grade social studies classes joined forces to clean up garbage around the school and Manlius. They did a great job of making a positive impact for their school and community.
Earth Day and animal adaptations was the topic in Mrs. Bell's 4th grade classroom. The students created chameleons using solar beads. When they went outside in the sunlight the chameleons changed colors.
Congratulations to all BVJH artists that had their work entered into the NCI ARTworks Town & Country show this weekend! Mrs. Knapp is very proud of all of your hard work this year!
