Buckingham County Primary School

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! 📚
