💗 BVHS National Honor Society and the Storm Volleyball team joined forces for Pink Night against Stark County to celebrate survivors, honor those currently navigating breast cancer, and remember those who will always hold a special place in our hearts.
Thanks to the generosity and support of our community and fans, we raised an incredible $3,315 for The Pink Ribbon Club of the Illinois Valley and The Believe Foundation! 🎀 Lorraine from the Pink Ribbon Club and Mary from The Believe Foundation joined us to accept the donations and share in this special moment.
Both organizations provide valuable, complimentary services to local women facing breast cancer, offering comfort, confidence, and support when it matters most. From helping women feel more like themselves throughout treatment to reminding them they aren't alone, these organizations make a meaningful difference in our community.
Thank you to everyone who donated, participated, and helped make this night a success! Together, we're spreading hope, lifting one another up, and making a difference one act of kindness at a time. 💗

Students in Mrs. Shimmin's Intro to Ag class have been working hard learning all about soil! Students learned about soil particle size, the makeup of soil, and the different horizons! To celebrate their learning students made their own Soil Profile Dirt Dessert! You could make your own soil profile at home with the following ingredients to represent each layer of soil:
Bedrock = 1 Whole Oreo
Parent Materials = Crumbled Oreo & Butterscotch Chips
Sub Soil = Crushed Graham Crackers
Top Soil = Chocolate Pudding
Organic Matter = Gummy Worms & Green Sprinkles
Who knew dirt could be so delicious?!

Thursday, October 22, IS PURPLE PINKY DAY at Bureau Valley High School!
For a small donation, Interact Club will be painting students and staff pinky fingernails purple during lunch. We will also paint pinkies at the home volleyball game, along with other fundraising activities.
What does a painted purple pinky nail mean?
When many people are being vaccinated for polio, children’s pinky fingers are colored purple to show they have received the vaccination. This helps ensure that all children are vaccinated and no one receives a double dose. Painting pinky nails purple shows support for this wonderful cause.
Polio is very close to being eradicated. We appreciate your support in helping this goal to be achieved!

BATTLE OF THE ERAS: THE “BEFORE THE STORM” AWARD 🏆⚡
Before we shared the STORM name, our communities had their own school colors, mascots, traditions, and plenty of pride.
Our “Before the Storm” winner gives us a glimpse of the Pre-BV era. Those stories belong in our celebration, too. Here’s to the schools, classmates, coaches, and teachers who remain such a meaningful part of our communities!

BATTLE OF THE ERAS: THE “BEST STORY” AWARD 🏆⚡
“3A STATE CHAMPIONS: BUREAU VALLEY.”
One scoreboard. A moment that meant everything to the players, coaches, and communities who lived it.
Our “Best Story” winner takes us back to the 2005 State Football Championship, a chapter in STORM history that still brings pride to the Valley!
That championship is part of a bigger story, written by the many STORM teams and individuals who have made memorable IHSA State Series runs. From Regional and Sectional titles to State appearances and medals, thank you for giving Bureau Valley so much to cheer for!

BATTLE OF THE ERAS: THE “ULTIMATE THROWBACK” AWARD 🏆⚡
