We've had an outstanding start to the 2019-2020 school year!
A program that was once a staple at BHS (machining) has returned thanks to a collaborative relationship between Ranger, the Breckenridge EDC and Dye Manufacturing. Our first students are currently learning the basics of machining and soon we will be graduating students who have the skills to earn high quality jobs at the end of the program.
We have also re-kindled our relationship with TSTC and have our first students taking welding through them. Our hope is both of those programs will grow and help us produce students ready to compete in the skilled economy.
We have also adopted a curriculum called 7 Mindsets. The purpose of this program is to teach students to change their mindset and create a positive opportunity out of life's many challenges. Students are engaging in this curriculum every Monday with their teachers. Ask your child about it! For more information visit https://7mindsets.com/.
Below I have included a few links and key dates for you to remember. If you have questions about upcoming events visit our District Calendar https://sites.google.com/a/breckenridgeisd.org/breckenridge-isd-calendar/ and as always, our Journalism Department does a great job keeping us in the loop on current events https://www.smore.com/p7cjr.
Our motto for the year is "growing together". Last year, the theme was "together is better" with the idea of integrating the school and community into a positive working relationship. With the 7 Mindsets theme and the idea of growing into positive thinking...we have adopted "growing together". We hope you follow us on Twitter, Instagram and Facebook and recognize the hashtag "growingtogether"...complete with a brain at the end.
Please contact us with any questions or concerns!
