Bessemer Area High School Grades 9-12, will have the opportunity to go to Powderhorn on Wednesday March 18th for a day of skiing/snowboarding. The permissions slips will be going home with students today, 3/4/2026. Please be sure to turn those in as soon as possible, so that we can get a number for the ski hill. Once they have the number of people, they will generate an online link for parents to read and sign the liability waiver and get the lift ticket/rental.

We are very excited for this opportunity!

Good morning! We have revamped our automated attendance notification tools, so if your child is absent or tardy, you will be notified via automated phone call. The first of these calls is set to run this afternoon. We appreciate your patience and understanding as we fine tune this process. Thank you!

Well, they say teaching elementary students can really age a person but.....

Teachers at Washington Elementary helped students celebrate the 100th day of school today by dressing as 100 year olds. A fun day was had by all.
