Our 7th grade Blackhawks had an incredible day attending the Courage Retreat, hosted and led by Youth Frontiers! 🌟

This powerful character-development experience inspires 7th graders to use courage to do the right thing and make responsible decisions—even when faced with fears or peer pressure. Throughout the retreat, our students committed to making everyday acts of courage to support one another and build a stronger community.

It was an awesome day of growth, leadership, and connection! We are so proud of these learners for stepping up and choosing courage! ❤️🤍🖤

Hands-on learning is in full swing at Baldwin-Woodville High School!

Mrs. Conway’s UWRF Dual Enrollment Statistics students kicked off their unit on scatter plots, correlation, and linear regression with an exciting "Barbie Bungee" lab activity! Students used rubber bands to test and predict the maximum distance Barbie could safely jump without hitting the ground—putting real-world data and math modeling to work.

A special shoutout to Mrs. Conway’s daughter, Evelyn, for graciously donating her princess Barbies for today’s experiment! 👑✨

We love seeing our Blackhawks dive into college-level coursework with creative, hands-on energy! 🖤

🪀✨ THE NED SHOW WAS A HIT AT GREENFIELD! ✨🪀

Our K–5 students had an incredible time at The NED Show’s Mindset Mission assembly on Wednesday! 🌟 Through inspiring storytelling and trick demonstrations, our Blackhawks learned NED’s core lessons:
❤️ Never give up
🤍 Encourage others
🖤 Do your best

Because this program operates on a Pay-It-Forward model, the assembly was completely free for our school!
You can help us pay it forward to the next school by purchasing an official NED yo-yo—sales are open now through Friday, October 23!

🛒 HOW TO PURCHASE A YO-YO:

🪀Online: Place your order online, then forward or print your receipt for Mrs. Eisen (meisen@bwsd.k12.wi.us). Students can pick up their yo-yo at the main office!

🪀In-Person (Greenfield Main Office): Available daily through Oct 23 from 7:40–8:15 AM & 2:40–3:15 PM.

Thank you for supporting character building at BW and helping us pass the mindset mission along to other kids!
