Echols and Fryar Compete at State
Two of our BGHS Track & Field athletes competed in the Indiana State Track Meet on May 31. In the regional meet, Romeo Echols advanced to State in the 100 meter dash, breaking a school record. And, Josh Fryar participated in the discus. His 155’10.5″ throw at regionals also broke a school record. Although Romeo and Josh did not place at State, we're Hornet Proud of these fantastic student athletes!

Send Us Your Hornet Highlights!
We know there are many, many positive stories about Beech Grove City Schools involving our students, teachers, staff, and programs that we don't always hear. If you have a positive story to share, please send the details to
Melody Stevens, Community Relations/Communications Director, at
mstevens@bgcs.k12.in.us. We also encourage you to send stories that include personal achievements of your child such as: attaining the rank of Eagle Scout, performing in a community play, earning Girl Scout badges, serving as a volunteer in a non-profit organization, etc., etc. You might just see your story in a future edition of the "Hornet Blast" or in one of our local south side newspapers. We want to celebrate our Hornets!
