If you have a student who will be eligible for kindergarten next school year who is NOT currently in the Bluford Pre-K program, please call the grade school office at 732-8242 to be added to the screening list. With COVID, our Pre-K numbers are lower than normal, so we are hoping that there are some more kindergarten students out there. Students will need to turn 5 before September 1, to be KG. eligible.
Here is a preview of the timelines for high school sports. We hope to share our complete sports plan by the end of the week.
