Mr. Powers Notes
As we approach the final three weeks of the school year, it's hard to believe we have reached the end already. We have witnessed incredible growth in our students, watched them push through to become successful in their chose career and technical education pathway, and become certified in their program of choice. We look forward to celebrating all of our students and their accomplishments on Monday, May 18th, at 6:00 PM at Shelbyville High School's Breck Auditorium. We will have a general scholarship program first, where we celebrate our outstanding students and name our scholarship winners. Once the general session is completed, we will then break out into program awards in various places throughout the high school. We hope to see everyone at our awards ceremony on May 18th.
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
