💙❤️💛 Autism Awareness Spirit Week is coming to BCPS! 💛❤️💙

Join us as we celebrate neurodiversity, promote inclusion, and show our support for individuals with autism. Together, we can help create a more understanding and accepting community!

🧩 Spirit Week: March 30 – April 2
🔹 Monday: Blue Out – Wear blue to show support
🔹 Tuesday: Puzzle Power – Rock puzzle-themed or bold outfits
🔹 Wednesday: Comfy & Cozy Day – Celebrate sensory-friendly comfort
🔹 Thursday: Rainbow Day – Wear your favorite colors to honor diversity

Did you know:
• Autism affects 1 in 36 children in the United States
• It is a spectrum, meaning every individual experiences autism differently
• Acceptance and inclusion make a meaningful difference in the lives of individuals with autism

Let’s come together to celebrate differences and build a more inclusive school community! 🌈🧩
#AutismAwareness #InclusionMatters #EveryKnightEveryDayTheBuckinghamWay

Today, 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! 💚

The SCA Movie Night, originally planned for Saturday, March 28th, has been postponed. Information will be shared when details of a rescheduled date are available.

Second graders went on a field trip to Literacy Day at Hampden-Sydney College —where stories come to life and young readers grow! 📚
