CONGRATULATIONS 2019 Bureau Valley South 8th graders on your Promotion last night and good luck at BVHS!
BVS held their last Birthday Book Assembly this week. We can not thank Walnut Rotary enough for fueling our students’ love for reading and giving them all a new book of their own for their birthdays the past two years! Thank you!
Don’t forget the new gym will be open an hour and half before and an hour after BVS Promotion tomorrow night at 7:00! Finishing touches are done just in time for you to check them out!
Please join us!
Great representation by BVS and BVN at IESA State Track Meet! Our coaches and athletes have always gone above and beyond and will be all that much stronger for it as one team next year!
During the second semester of school this year, Mrs. Salisbury's and Mrs. Kuelper's 5th grade classes participated in the DARE program. DARE.’s curricula, as well as its enhancement lessons, focus on bullying, internet safety, and over-the-counter prescription drug and opiates abuse. DARE is made possible for our students due to the support of the Bureau County Sheriff's Department, Officer Cliff Morse, and the the Bureau Valley South PTO. Congratulations to all of our DARE students, their teachers, and their parents. It is our hope that you will always be drug-free and violence-free role models for others.
Good luck BVS Track athletes at State tomorrow. We celebrated their successes today in Manlius and cheered them on for competition tomorrow!
