BRHS incoming 9th grade student Sky Walker, pictured on the right, attended the IHSSBCA quiz bowl camp at Illinois Weslyan the week of July 12th. Sky was recognized for her poise, enthusiasm and bearing of self confidence. Sky was further lauded for her leadership instinct during practice and match sessions reminding others to take notes. Many staffers thought Sky was an incoming upperclassman and further complimented her spirit and fortitude. Congratulations Sky! Go Knights!
Back-to-school is right around the corner! Please take a moment to read the welcome letter from your student’s building principal for important information and updates as we prepare for another great year.
It’s a great time to be a Knight!
