Strong family-school relationships promote positive outcomes for students. What is one way your child’s early learning center makes your family feel welcome? #MIFamilyEngagement
Do you know a Branch County school staff member or a student who has gone above and beyond to include students with disabilities? This recognition celebrates those who foster a welcoming environment, encourage diversity, and ensure that all students, regardless of their abilities or backgrounds, feel valued and supported. The nominees exemplify the spirit of inclusion by creating opportunities for every student to thrive and succeed.
The AFNR class spent the day with the great folks of the Branch County Conservation District as they helped scout fields, dig holes, and served as judges for our Soil Evaluation competition! We are grateful for their time!

Did you know our Intermediate School District (ISD) provides services and support for Career & Technical Education (CTE), Special Education, and Early Childhood programs? This week, our CTE and Special Education departments teamed up to create a memorable day of learning and fun!
Students from Waldron Learning Center were hosted by our Education Professions and Agriculture, Food & Natural Resources programs for a special fall event. 🍂 Students enjoyed a hayride out to meet the animals raised by our Ag students, then came inside to experiment with toys created by Education Fundamentals students, paint pumpkins that were generously donated by Swift Pumpkin Patch, who is also a BACC alumnus, and enjoy a snack.
Even though the weather brought a little rain, the day was filled with sunshine, smiles, and laughter from everyone involved. ☀️🎃🐮
