On January 10th, 2026 Daniel Flores traveled to the ACE Center at Virginia Randolph and competed in the SkillsUSA Virginia District 2 Welding contest. Daniel competed against 3 other contestants from ACE and Powhatan HS in building a weldment coupon. The contest required the students to read a blueprint, cut, fit and and build their projects using drawing/welding symbol interpretation techniques as well as various hand/power tools and welding processes. Daniel represented Buckingham CTE and BCHS with great poise and integrity; he learned many things about himself and the trade during the event...and even got a job offer from two judges!
Winners will be announced at the SkillsUSA District 2 awards ceremony at ACE Center at Heritage in Richmond next Tuesday January 20th. Winners will move on to the SkillsUSA State Championships in Va Beach March 9-11.
Congratulations Daniel on putting yourself out there and best of luck!

BCHS concluded the semester with some amazing Christmas carols from our Medford Team, and the teachers had to showcase their volleyball skills in the Student/Faculty FFA volleyball game. We hope everyone has a fantastic Winter Break and a Happy New Year!
When the BCHS JROTC isn't out there dominating the competition, they are taking care of things right here at home—these young people, along with Sgt. Grazier collected 21 bags of trash down High School Rd to the Lee Wayside Inn and is helping to keep Buckingham County beautiful.
Congratulations to our 2025-2026 Teachers of the Year! Each teacher is now in the running for Division Teacher of the Year. Thank you all for your hard work and dedication to our students!

Good evening. Our mass notification vendor is currently experiencing delays in sending out the phone calls, text messages, and emails for the two-hour delay. Their support team is currently working on it with no ETA for a resolution. This may result in these notifications going out at unusual times when the issue is fixed. We apologize for any inconvenience this may cause.
Good evening! Due to extreme cold temperatures and wind chills in the morning, BCPS will operate on a 2-HOUR DELAY tomorrow (Monday, December 15, 2025) for all students and staff. This is a reminder that breakfast is not served on days with a delayed opening. We hope everyone stays safe and warm!
