Important Notice:  In keeping with the Maine DOE Framework for Reopening Schools, Oxford County has been designated "Yellow".  This designation does allow BJSHS to continue with our Hybrid model for student learning, and will not change our current school day programming.  Unfortunately, this designation does cause the cancelation of all in-person extra-curricular activities at our school for at least one week, starting today.  We continue to be impressed by the hard work of students and families, and ask you all to be safe during this time.  Please reach out to the school with any questions.

Picture Days are coming. Picture Day this fall at BJSHS will actually take place over two separate days this year. Lifetouch will be here to take pictures for Cohort B & D students on Thursday, October 1, and then return on Monday, October 5 for Cohort A & C students.
