Good afternoon BCMS families! We hope this message finds you and your families safe and well!
Please see the following message from Badcock in Quitman!
We have opened the Badcock Quitman store to help families without power. We have AC, we have electricity, and we’re giving out bottled water while we have supplies. We have a place that’s safe and cool for you to bring your families, young children, and elderly.
Due to the condition of roads, downed trees, and the continued power outages, Brooks County Schools will remain closed through Monday, September 4. All athletic events will be rescheduled. We plan to reopen on Tuesday, September 5. If plans should change, we will make an announcement on Monday. Stay safe, Trojans!
Due to current road conditions and widespread power outages, Brooks County Schools will remain closed on Thursday, August 31. We will assess conditions tomorrow afternoon and announce the plan for Friday.

As Tropical Storm Idalia occupies our attention, please rest assured that Brooks County Schools are actively monitoring the storm. We are in constant contact with local and state emergency management as well as local stakeholders. As of this moment, no decisions have been made in reference to the status of school closings. It is simply too early to make those determinations. We continue to be involved in several briefings throughout the day to ensure we have the most current information. We recommend that everyone visit the Brooks County 911/EMA Facebook page and download the CodeRed App. The free app is used nationwide and will provide real time emergency information for your area. The safety and welfare of our students and staff as well the entire Trojan community remains our top priority.

Each year our local VFW sponsors a writing contest for our Trojans. This year's writing prompt for our middle school students is "How are you inspired by America?" Please encourage your Trojan to participate in this writing contest to honor our veterans! The top three winners will be recognized at the annual Veterans Day Program on November 11, 2023. If you have questions about the writing contest, please check with Mrs. Jones (BCMS), Mr. Lucas (DIS), or your Social Studies teacher.
"As we express our gratitude, we must never forget that the highest appreciation is not to utter words, but to live by them."
