FOOTBALL UPDATE
Due to the thunderstorms predicted for tonight, we have moved the varsity football game to 5:30 pm and canceled/postponed senior night. The freshman game has been rescheduled for 5:00 pm Monday, October 8th before the JV game at Norwalk. The Bluejay marching band and dance team will not perform at halftime. We will not recognize the youth football players as planned but will still honor the free entry if they are in a jersey. Please watch for future communication regarding the rescheduling of senior recognition. Thank you all for your understanding.

Bob Brown Buick is bringing vehicles to the BFHS parking lot on October 6th. For every BLUEJAY FAN that test drives a vehicle, they will pay a BF support group $20. You choose which organization, team or club will receive the money for your drive. They will not try to sell you a car during the 5-minute test drive. Drivers must be 21 or over, have a valid driver’s license, and insurance. Two drivers per household are allowed! Click here to sign up …
