🙌 THANKFUL THURSDAY 🙌 We are so appreciative of the support of our community! Here's just one reason why: Last week, Middle School Principal, Josh Bull, dedicated our new BRMS gymnasium scoreboards saying, "These new scoreboards replaced the 50-year-old scoreboards that were previously there. This project was made possible by the partnership with Isabella Bank and our Middle School PTO." Thank you to all those involved in completing this project!
