Mr. Powers Notes
As we approach the last nine weeks of the school year, we turn our attention to certification testing for several of our programs. These tests are extremely vital for our students as these credentials they could earn will allow them to be marketable once they graduate high school or even while they are still in high school because they can work and earn money in the summertime. We encourage our students to give their best effort on these certifications and put themselves in a position to be successful.
As always, if you have any questions or concerns, you may reach me at 317-392-4191 ex. 1101 or jpowers@brcp.k12.in.us
