Huge thank you to Franklin's Spring Creek Ford for generously donating a truck for our BHS Band to use to safely get our equipment and uniforms to Columbus on Thursday! Your support of our students, and school system is much appreciated! We look forward to our continued partnership together!
Today, we pause to remember and honor.
On Patriot Day, we remember the lives lost on September 11, 2001, and the countless acts of courage, compassion, and selflessness that followed.
We honor the first responders who ran toward danger, the service members who answered the call, and the everyday Americans who came together in the face of tragedy.
May we continue to carry forward the spirit of unity that reminds us we are stronger together.
We will never forget.

Essentials of Healthcare students completed an in-class cell project.
WE Are Bainbridge.
Last week, Decatur County Schools had the privilege of presenting the September Bainbridge-Decatur County Chamber of Commerce Luncheon, and what a great day it was to be a Bearcat!
From the moment guests arrived, The Bearcat Way was on full display.
BHS Band students welcomed guests outside the Kirbo Center. Buddy the Bearcat greeted attendees. Student ambassadors welcomed and directed guests, served and assisted in the food line, and interacted directly with Chamber members and community leaders. RobotCat was in the lobby shaking hands and showcasing technology. Throughout the luncheon, images and stories of our students and schools filled the screens.
Every part of the experience had a purpose: to show, not just tell, what it means to be a Bearcat.
Our students were serving, performing, demonstrating technology, connecting with business leaders, and sharing the talents and skills they are developing every day.
Decatur County Schools is the public school system of Decatur County. We are the public, and we give what no one else can.
We bring together students from across our community and provide opportunities through Academics, Arts, and Athletics that allow them to discover their strengths, develop their talents, find where they belong, and prepare for what comes next.
And what comes next matters to all of us.
The students in our schools today are the workforce, business owners, educators, healthcare professionals, entrepreneurs, artists, leaders, and neighbors of tomorrow. When we invest in their education and their opportunities, we are investing in the future of Bainbridge and Decatur County.
That is why the relationship between our public schools and our community matters. Thank you to our teachers, staff, administrators, students, families, Chamber members, local businesses, and community partners who continue to invest in our students and believe in what we can accomplish together.
We invite our business community to stay engaged, stay connected, and continue creating opportunities alongside us.
Strong public schools help build a strong workforce, a strong economy, and a strong Bainbridge.
WE are students.
WE are educators.
WE are families.
WE are businesses.
WE are community partners.
Together, WE Are Bainbridge.
It’s a great day to be a Bearcat!
