Knight Pride Shout Outs at BMS!
Jordyn Hickson ~ She helped clean the hallway during bus waves on Friday and swept the whole hall!
Connor Branch ~ After he saw a student cleaning the hall, he volunteered to help her.
Riley Page ~ Riley is currently the catcher for the JV baseball team. He always has a positive attitude and encourages his pitcher when the pitcher appears to be getting down on himself. Riley exemplifies sportsmanship and leadership on the field.
We are proud of these students and their amazing Knight Pride!

Yesterday, BCMS agriculture class and FFA members read "Farm Boots" to second-grade classes at Buckingham Primary School. This event was held in partnership with Buckingham Farm Bureau and the Virginia Agriculture in the Classroom program. BCMS FFA members read to help promote National Agriculture Literacy Week and share the importance of agriculture at a young age. Thank you, BCMS, for being awesome role models for our young Knights! 💚
