We are excited to announce that we have several openings in some of our middle school and high school classes! As families begin the back to school preparations we have seen movement on our waitlist and new families have the opportunity to apply for the spaces still available. Pass this great news on to friends! Please contact Brenda Seymour, Director of Enrollment, at seymourb@brpsk12.org or 616-355-0055, ext. 116 to arrange a tour or for more information.  

Hello Elementary Parents! We hope that everyone has had an enjoyable and relaxing summer.  Believe it or not, school starts in less than a week!  This is just a quick reminder to keep filling out those reading links that were sent home in June.  We plan to hold a Reading Celebration during the first week of school where we will link ALL of our summer reading hours together and recognize the students' achievements. Does your student need extra links? Click here.

Welcome back!  The 2019-2020 school year starts on Wednesday, August 21, 2019. Listed below is the back-to-school information page with helpful dates and reminders to get you ready for the new school year. We look forward to seeing you soon!

Back-to-School Information - 2019-2020

Cranes for Peace: Black River Students Send paper Cranes to Hiroshima 

Back-to-School: Area Districts begin as Early as August 21, 2019

Please join all of the Black River Orchestras for our first concert of the 2019-2020 school year. The theme is "alternative styles", which includes a unique variety of music such as fiddle, rock, and jazz. All orchestra concerts are free of charge.

Black River students in Mrs. Marguerite Stephens' History class made hundreds of paper cranes that were strung together and sent to Hiroshima to be added to the other cranes in the Hiroshima Peace Park, Japan. The cranes arrived safely and are now hanging at the Children’s Peace Monument in a lasting effort to promote a peaceful world without nuclear weapons. 

Happy Summer! Our administrative staff will be on hand to serve your family over the summer break. The elementary and MS/HS main office will be open Monday-Thursday from 9:00am until 1:00pm. 

Check-out the new Black River School Spirit Store - Uniting Students, Parents and Fans through School Pride! We are very excited to announce our School Store with 24/7 online ordering and delivery straight to your home.

We hope you will consider the School Store when shopping for the holidays and stocking stuffers! Contact the MS/HS Main Office if you have any questions.
