CARDINALS CLAIM CONFERENCE CHAMPIONSHIP - The Big Rapids High School chess team finished regular season play on Tuesday with a home match against Newaygo. The Lions (4-0-1) and the Cardinals (4-1-0) squared off with the winner claiming the conference championship. The Cardinals secured the victory in the 4th round after coming out strong in rounds 1-3. Mr. Buist is very proud of his team who went from last place last year to first place this year. The team concludes the season on Monday with an individual-play tournament at Newaygo. Go CARDS!

Last night at the Board of Education meeting, we were proud to recognize our secretaries and clerical paraprofessionals for their outstanding service to our district. They were presented with Certificates of Recognition honoring their commitment to excellence and the countless ways they help our schools run smoothly, each and every day.
Their dedication, professionalism, and behind-the-scenes support play an essential role in the success of our students, staff, and schools. We are incredibly grateful for all they do.
Join us in showing them some appreciation!
