Schneider's Camp Read S'More welcomed campers on Thursday night with a book fair, flashlight reading in our tents, bookmark creation, family library checkout and special guest Eli the service dog. Thanks to all our families who attended and to Schneider staff & PIE who helped make it happen!
One more timing reminder for this afternoon...Please plan to join us at 5pm in Moore Gym at BRHS for our Wall
Of Fame recognition, followed by Coronation. We have intentionally scheduled both of these special events together so you can easily support them both in one evening. We ask that you plan to attend both events and we look forward to seeing you at 5:00. #br_u_knighted
Just a quick reminder that BRHS Homecoming Week kicks off tomorrow at 5:00 p.m. with a very special celebration. We'll be honoring our newest members of the Wall of Fame, as well as recognizing the members of this year's Homecoming court. The event will culminate with the announcement of our king and queen. It should be a fun, unique way to celebrate our past and present all at once.
Everything will take place in Moore Gym at BRHS. Again, it all starts at 5:00. Hope to see you there!

Would you help the City of Farmer City with a grant opportunity to add more sidewalks close to Schneider Elementary? You can do so by filling out a survey, even if your children don't currently attend Schneider. On 9.18.23, all K-8th graders will bring home a paper copy of this survey: https://5il.co/24n1o. If you would consider completing one per family and returning it to BRIJHS or Schneider by 9.28.23 it would be extremely helpful for the purpose of the grant! Please see more info here: https://5il.co/24n1n. Thank you! #br_u_knighted
