Chess Club at the Junior High! Starts 9/12
It’s Chess time again! The game has been in existence for centuries, and is played around the world. Players develop skills in analysis, prediction, planning and reacting to adversity. And it’s a lot of fun too!
Chess club will meet in the Junior High School library at 7:30am on Tues. and Wed. Club will run until students are released to class at 7:58am. No attendance is taken. Students can play when they are able. There is no cost or sign up. Any junior high student may participate, from beginners to masters. We truly enjoy teaching the game.
If you have any questions, please contact Mr. Kinrade (kinradec@bfschools.org).
Coins for Kids-Coin Drive
COINS FOR KIDS is a fundraising opportunity taking place during National Childhood Cancer Awareness Month and we will be partnering with/donating all collected funds to Make-A-Wish Iowa. This is an awesome opportunity to celebrate/honor BFCSD students who have been impacted by childhood cancer (as well as other major medical conditions) and support Make-A-Wish Iowa’s mission & vision – creating and granting life-changing wishes for local children with critical illnesses.
The WINN group that collects the most money in coins will have their choice of a free period or party.
Lunch Accounts
Sports Physicals
This is an exciting time for young athletes of all experience levels. To be eligible for participation, the school needs you to:
- Complete the online Activity Registration. Here is the link to the Activity Registration Page.
- Submit a completed Iowa Athletic Pre-Participation Physical Examination form to the MS Office (either electronically or drop off a copy). Physical Form Link
No athlete is allowed to practice or compete until both of these steps have been completed. (The athlete is highly encouraged to attend practice to observe so that they are "up to speed" when they are deemed eligible.)
