🏒 Cardinal Spirit on Full Display! 🏒
Today, Friday, January 16, our 8th–12th grade students had the opportunity to attend the Big Rapids High School hockey game against Grand Rapids Catholic Central — and it was incredible to see our students show up and support our programs.
While the Cardinals didn’t come away with the win on the scoreboard, the Cardinal Spirit in the stands was victorious. Seeing students cheer on their peers and represent BR with pride is what school community is all about.
A huge thank you to the staff who made this experience possible — from scheduling and transportation to event coordination and entertainment. Your behind-the-scenes work created a memorable day for our students.
Cardinal Pride always wins!

BRHS offers senior students the opportunity to take part in Work-Based Learning.
It's been a valuable experience for Madison, who is participating through Corewell Health. "WBL has been an amazing opportunity for me to grow my knowledge about my after high school plans. I've gained valuable connections, work experience, and skills to help me in my future. This program has provided insight and experiences I would have never gotten or achieved without it."

We’d love for our community to join us in thanking the Big Rapids Board of Education! 💙❤️
Last night, we had the opportunity to shower our Board with a few small gifts, and we hope they truly felt the appreciation behind them. Their time, dedication, and commitment to our students, staff, and community make a lasting impact every day.
