💗 Today, we traded our blue and white for PINK! 💗
Fridays are usually Spirit Days at BHS, but today we wore pink in honor of Dolly Parton—a lifelong advocate for childhood literacy and putting books into the hands of children. 📚💗
A little different kind of school spirit today, but for a pretty great reason!
💗📚 Together We Rise! 📚💗
A great way to kick off the school year! 💙🤍
Yesterday, I attended the Pike County Conference meeting with athletic directors and administrators from Griggsville-Perry, Meredosia-Chambersburg, Pleasant Hill, Payson, Pittsfield, and Western.
It was great to get together, connect, and start planning for the year ahead. One of the best parts of rural schools is working together to provide as many opportunities as possible for our students!

What a great first day back!
We are so excited to have our students back and to kick off another wonderful school year! It was wonderful seeing our hallways and classrooms full again.
Here are a few pictures from our first day!! 💙🤍
Somehow we all survived the first week of school. Though we may not have AC in the high school, the students toughed it out and found a way to embrace the first week of school.
The high school teachers along with some pretty amazing parent volunteers, Eddie Plummer and Michelle Myers, orchestrated a first day of school field day where the students competed as a class against the other classes to see which team could run the relay race the fastest. The students laughed and reconnected making the first day of school one to be remembered. They even got watermelon for a snack!
Here's to a great year at BHS!

Our amazing golf team just finished their first week of matches. We're so glad to have our returning players for their third year. They are dedicated players that give it their all. Tanner Churchman and Henry Barczewski both had a birdie, Tanner achieving his by chipping it in the hole from off of the green. Colton Hall had a nice one putt to finish a hole from a good distance on the green. We have a home match at Lockhaven Golf Course on Monday at 4:00 pm against Bunker Hill, and spectators are welcome. Come out and golf clap for our players!

🇺🇸 Learning, Leadership & Respect for Our Flag 🇺🇸
Our 5th grade students had a special hands-on learning experience as they learned the proper way to post the American flag each day. They learned not only the steps involved, but also the importance of showing respect, responsibility, and care for our nation’s flag.
We are proud to see our students taking on this daily responsibility and learning the traditions that help build leadership and pride in our school community.
Great job, 5th grade! 🇺🇸💙🤍

🎩💙 HATS OFF TO JAMES LONG! 💙🎩
Congratulations to James Long, our very first Hats Off recipient of the 2026–2027 school year!
This week, our students were challenged to do the right thing—even when no one else is watching. James showed us exactly what that looks like.
When he noticed a younger student who needed a little help, James didn’t wait to be asked or look for recognition. He simply stepped up and helped because it was the right thing to do. 💙
These are the moments that make us proud. Kindness, leadership, and looking out for one another can make a BIG difference in someone’s day.
Hats Off to you, James! 🎩👏 Thank you for setting such a great example and starting our year off strong!
💙🤍 Together We Rise! 🤍💙
A BIG shout-out to our amazing PTO for working alongside us to make Meet the Teacher Night such a great evening! 💙🤍
A special thank you for helping our newest students get officially “signed” up for Kindergarten! What a fun way to welcome them to Brussels and make the start of their school journey extra special! ✏️📚
And we absolutely loved the positive notes and affirmations written along the sidewalk as we left Tuesday evening. Those little messages were such a wonderful reminder of the encouragement and support that surrounds our students and staff.
Unfortunately, Mother Nature decided to rain on our parade a little and washed some of those messages away—but she certainly couldn’t wash away the positive spirit behind them! 😊
Thank you as well to all of the parents and families who attended our Parent Meeting. We appreciate you taking the time to join us, hear about the year ahead, and stay informed. Your partnership and support mean so much to our schools and our students. If you have any questions about anything that was discussed, please don’t hesitate to give us a call. We are always happy to help!
We welcomed the new school year with plenty of smiles and a whole lot of Brussels pride. Thank you to everyone who helped us start the year on such a positive note! 💙🤍

What an AWESOME first day of the 2026–2027 school year! 💙🤍
Our buildings were filled with smiles, laughter, excitement, and plenty of great energy as our students and staff came together to kick off a brand-new year. Memories are already being made, relationships are being forged, and we are so excited to see what this year has in store!
There is just something special about that first-day feeling—and today was a wonderful reminder of what makes our Brussels school community such a great place to be.
Here’s to a year of learning, growing, supporting one another, and making memories along the way!

Who's ready for the first day of school? The Brussels High School teachers, along with our very own Miss Calhoun, have been working tirelessly to make the first day of school for the 6-12th grade students one they won't forget.
The 6-12th grade students will celebrate their first day of school with a short assembly followed by a morning filled with fun activities that will bring about laughter, teamwork, and probably some sweat.
After lunch, 9-12 grade students will get the opportunity to participate in class meetings, find organizations to be a part of at BHS, and learn what it truly means to be a Raider!
We are so excited to be a part of our students' first day of school.
*Abby Johnes, we truly appreciate all the help you provided to make this day successful!
*Not pictured Jeanne Johnes, Amy Manker, and Chad Brodbeck who all contributed to the first day of school events!)
