Boys Cross Country Team

The boys cross country team finished their season on Saturday by taking 3rd place at the State Mega Jamboree.  They were once again led by Noah Scheffer who placed 3rd overall in the state. Noah was followed closely by Jake Reame who took 6th overall. Cade Sutterfield, Steven Kraine, and Seth Murphy ran great races to also place near the front.  7th graders Noah Bock and Austin Depue ran personal best times to medal in the varsity race.  Michael Siesel, Ethan Chavalier and Patrick Dotson all ran amazing times to place up near the front of the reserve races.  Ryan Gore, Reece Thomas and Jack Geisler all ran great races for the 7th graders as well, and Tyler German ended his season with a personal best.

Not only did they finish as the 3rd ranked team in the whole state of Michigan, they will go down as one of the best cross country teams in the history of the junior high.  Great job, and great season guys!

Chromebooks

6th and 7th grade students - We have received notice that Chromebooks have been seen unattended during after school sporting practices/events.  Please remember that you can return to your locker after practice to retrieve your Chromebook.  Chromebooks should never be left unattended, in the gymnasium, or under a tree. It is important to remember that each student with a Chromebook signed an agreement at the beginning of the school year that states...

• I will be responsible for my Chromebook at all times.

• My Chromebook will never be left unattended

• I will store my Chromebook in my secured locker at BJHS while at sports practices or after school activities
