Today Mrs. Johnson’s 6th grade Social Studies classes learned about international economic interdependence. Groups of students represented different countries making bids to produce pencils for the United States. They found the best routes to get the materials (wood, graphite, paint, aluminum, and rubber) to their country for production and then back to the United States. They were surprised to discover that it takes the cooperation of so many different nations to make the pencils they use every day in school. Our tools for note-taking are truly a global effort!
First grade students at Floyd enjoyed the snow today while making icy nature ornaments and examining snowflakes.
Good morning Bullock Creek. The Bullock Creek School District is in session today (1/6/22). Some roads are slick in spots, please allow extra time on your morning commute.
Five awesome Bullock Creek High School Alumni visited with students from English 11 and English 12 classes. Aubrey Brown (2019 grad and SVSU junior), Addi Buda (2021 grad and Delta freshman), Rylie Kalina (2017 grad and Davenport Master's Degree), Sam Midkiff (2021 grad and Purdue freshman), and Kaylee Monville (2021 grad and EMU freshman) shared their experiences and advice for college with the students.
Creekers for a Cause donated over 15 pairs of waterproof gloves and mittens, hats, and knitted gloves to our nature program. Having warm outdoor gear is an important part of ensuring our students have positive learning experiences outdoors. We are grateful for their donation.
This week, 6th, 7th and 8th grade art students created miniature gingerbread houses. They sketched designs based on donated supplies then built their house around a recycled milk carton. Finally, they decorated their festive houses (and ate a few treats along they way)!
What a special day for Floyd Elementary students and staff! We were treated to a holiday concert put on by Mrs. B and the BCHS band at the auditorium. Thank you for adding to our festive mood and the chance to practice being a respectful member of an audience. We loved it all!

BCMS Spreads Holiday Cheer! BCMS Student Council completed their annual community service project this week. Students delivered holiday gift baskets to MidMichigan Medical Center on Thursday to show their thanks and appreciation for their hard work taking care of our community. Students filled the baskets with energizing snacks and homemade ornaments for the nurses, doctors and hospital staff. They had a wonderful time spreading holiday cheer to well deserving people at the hospital!
We loved having Deacon O. visit school today!
Congratulations to Gerard Wauldron! He was awarded a grant from the Longuski-Carter branch of Meemic Insurance. The plan for these funds is to provide two media outlets within Bullock Creek Middle School to display announcements and other things throughout the day.
