It is with great sadness that we share that our beloved therapy dog, Jack, has crossed the Rainbow Bridge.
Jack brought comfort, joy, and unconditional love to everyone he met. Whether he was helping students through a tough day or simply brightening our hallways with his happy spirit, he made BCMS a better place.
We are incredibly grateful for the love and memories he gave us. His paw prints will forever remain in our hearts and in our school.
Run free, sweet Jack. You will always be a Trojan, you will always be loved, and you will always be part of the BCMS Family. ❤️💙🐾
Please keep Jack's family in your thoughts during this difficult time.

This week we want to celebrate our TOP THREE TEACHER OF THE YEAR FINALISTS!
Ms. Crowder has been in the business of agriculture education for three years, and she looks forward to coming to work each day because she is able to see the impact she is making on her students. While her students come to school from all different backgrounds, they show up with personality, energy, and a willingness to connect, and that keeps each day interesting. Ms. Crowder also loves that there is never a dull moment, and the fact that she is trusted to be creative and bring her own passion into her classroom. She says the strong sense of community makes BCMS feel less like a workplace and more like somewhere she truly belongs.
Ms. Goodin joined the BCMS team nine years ago to fulfill her dream of becoming a teacher. For as long as she can remember, she loved helping her teachers whether it was organizing their classrooms or passing back papers. When asked what she loves most about BCMS, Ms. Goodin shared that she has formed great friendships with her colleagues and looks forward to shared laughs with her colleagues. While there are times when the students can be a bit challenging, she also strongly believes in the power of engaging lessons. When she is able to identify the students' interests, she finds extreme reward in watching them learn!
Ms. Rambeau has been a teacher for four years. Her decision to become a teacher came to life just a few years ago, and that choice was one made from the perspective of a concerned mother! As a child, Ms. Rambeau experienced some challenges as a middle schooler, and she decided she did not want her own child to face similar challenges without her close by. This was her first step in becoming an educator, and she now uses each day to be the teacher she not only needed but wished for in school!
We are excited to celebrate these three educators, and we are thankful for all they do to take Brooks County Middle School to the #NextLevel! Stay tuned next week to find out who will be our next Teacher of the Year!
