Belpre City Schools

Last Friday, May 9th we had the honor of hosting The 5th Annual Washington County Snack and Field Day. We were determined to make it memorable and enjoyable for all involved. The event provided access to a fun, engaging, adaptive, and sensory friendly field day experience to all 300+ visiting students and their support staff. Belpre's love for serving our community was on full display as students had the chance to engage in their choice of any of the 45 activities provided. The event showcased many of the things that make BCS special and was by run completely by students, staff, and community members. Sunshine Awards were given to student participants from each school that radiated positivity to those around them throughout the day. The BHS volunteers also received many shout outs from visiting schools for being engaging, kind, and inclusive to all of our participants.

Serving others builds the foundation of strong communities. Last Friday, BHS held a "Beautify Belpre Day" and students got out to give back. Our students thrived with the task of sprucing up the Senior Center, Civitan Park, and the Elementary and High Schools. We're excited to expand this and do even more in the years to come!

The Belpre High School National Honor Society is at it again! Over the weekend NHS members met at the school to work on sprucing up the courtyard area with flowers, mulch, and a pressure wash. Commitment to service is a pillar of the NHS, and our students are making it happen!

On April 17, the BHS Student Council coordinated a very special workshop for nearly a hundred Belpre 6th - 12th grade students. The workshop was called 'Mind Your Mind' and focused on helping students find ways to handle the mental health stress that they face every day. Focusing on Self Awareness, Resilience, and Radical Acceptance, the workshop challenged students on many levels, and was led by Connie Miley, Executive Director of Ohio Association of Student Leaders. Funding came from a grant through The Joe Burrow Foundation that was written by senior Haley Hatcher. Students were overwhelming positive in their post-workshop feedback, stating that workshops like this needed to happen more often and that it needed to be offered to more students.
