Dear BCPS Families and Community,
Buckingham County Public Schools will operate on a normal schedule tomorrow, Thursday, October 3rd. We are excited to remind everyone that the Homecoming Parade will take place tomorrow evening at 6:00 PM. The parade will start at Gilliam Motors and proceed down Main Street to the train depot.
Following the parade, we will host an indoor community pep rally in the high school gym. Due to the weather, there will not be an outdoor bonfire. Please note that the school’s clear bag policy will be in effect for anyone entering the gym for the pep rally.
The first 500 people in attendance at the pep rally will receive a free hot dog and drink.
We look forward to seeing everyone tomorrow night to celebrate Homecoming!
