💙 KNIGHTS AGAINST BULLYING! 💙
October is National Bullying Prevention Month, a time to remind ourselves that each of us has the power to make our school a kinder, more welcoming place. 💙
This Friday, October 2, we’re asking our BCHS students and staff to WEAR BLUE to show our support for bullying prevention, kindness, inclusion, and respect!
At BCHS, being a Knight means looking out for one another. A kind word, an invitation to join in, standing up for someone, or simply choosing kindness can make a bigger difference than we realize. 🫶
Let’s fill the halls with BLUE on Friday and show that our Knights choose KINDNESS! 💙💚💛
Be Kind. Be Inclusive. Be a Knight. ⚔️

At this month’s Buckingham County School Board meeting, we were pleased to recognize the NAACP Youth Council and show our appreciation for their support of Buckingham County Public Schools students.
In partnership with local churches, the Youth Council collected and donated school supplies to help ensure our students had the resources they needed to start the school year ready for success.
We are grateful for young people who are making a difference in their community and for the local churches and community members who joined them in supporting our students.
Thank you to the NAACP Youth Council for demonstrating leadership, service, and a commitment to our Buckingham community!
