The Blue route and the Red route will be combined this afternoon at our 2:20 dismissal. (For today only, blue and red don't make purple.) Thank you! #br_u_knighted
BR Families, we are short a driver this morning, which will impact the Blue bus route. If you are able to transport your student from the Blue route this morning, thank you. Otherwise, a driver will be able to run the Blue route after completing their first route. Pick up times for Blue will be between 8:10-8:45. We apologize for the inconvenience. Afternoon information will be shared as soon as it’s available. #br_u_knighted
Again I'm reminded that we have much to be thankful for! I challenge you to have a conversation with your children about that today. As a reminder, we close the school year with a 2:20 dismissal tomorrow, May 26. Please watch for our Summer Knights posts to return and we hope that you'll join in the fun! #br_u_knighted

Local artist Mary Yeadon came to visit Mr. Moore’s 3rd grade Fine Arts class this week. Students asked questions about her life as an artist, she showed off some of her paintings, and then shared some of her techniques for them to practice!
2nd Grade Parents - Due to weather concerns, 2nd graders will be eating at school (parents are welcome!) Weather permitting, 2nd grade will be headed to Weedman park after lunch.
Thanks for being flexible!

Dear BRIJHS Band Parents,
Due to unforeseen circumstances, Mr. Mitchell tested positive today for COVID. Mr. Mitchell will be isolating for 5 days, which means he will not be able to attend the concert this evening . THE CONCERT WILL GO ON. Mrs. Wrestler has stepped up to fill the void. The concert will include 5th Grade Beginning Band, Junior High Chorus, and Junior High Band, including 6th, 7th, and 8th graders. Mrs. Wrestler is doing a wonderful thing to make this concert happen, but due to missing parts, we have decided to cancel the 6th Grade Drumline performance. We will do our best to find an opportunity for them to perform before the end of the school year. Have a wonderful evening of music. Thank you for your support of the Arts at Blue Ridge. In music, Christopher Mitchell

It was a glorious day for a wedding at recess! No, not the students.....the dolls! The school year may be wrapping up for 8th graders, but we sure enjoyed the invites and spontaneous fun!
