Sectional game at Bradford today!

Ms. Grant and her Pre-K class are reviewing their letters with an A-Z countdown until the end of school! Today for the letter G, they had a glow party!


Last evening BCS Principal Mr. Waters led a presentation on Cyber Safety and Bullying Prevention for the Bradford community. The goal was to inform families of what cyberbullying looks like and what steps parents and guardians can take to help combat bullying overall. The event was held in the cafeteria, with dinner provided at 5:30p.m. If you were unable to attend last night's meeting, please refer to the attached slideshow for more information. Thank you again for continuing to support the Bradford Central School district and feel free to contact the main office with any questions.

We look forward to celebrating our BCS Students at this year's 7th-12th Academic Awards Ceremony!


Mr. Waters participated in a Butterfly Hunt. In science class, the 8th graders are learning about evolution, which includes camouflage. Each student designed and colored a butterfly to hide in the classroom. Mr. Waters was asked to look for them.
Here are some images of Mr. Waters "hunting" as well as some of the butterflies.


As a reminder to parents and students there will be NO school on Friday, May 23rd. This will be a snow give back day.


Dear Bradford CSD Community Members,
We are thrilled to extend our heartfelt gratitude to each of you for your support in passing the school budget vote. Your commitment and trust in our district's vision will help us create a better learning environment, enhance educational opportunities and support our students' growth and success.
We are equally appreciative of you for passing our bus proposition. We strongly believe that keeping our transportation fleet modern is a prudent approach for us to leverage transportation aid and ensure our vehicles are safe and reliable for student transport.
Congratulations to Mr. Alex Waters on being reelected to the Board of Education.
Together we are building a stronger and more responsive school district that places the best interests of the students at the forefront of our decision making. Thank you for your support and confidence in the future the Bradford Central School District.

Bradford Central School District is proud to announce this year’s Class of 2025 Valedictorian, Cheyanne Grandall!
Cheyanne is actively involved in a number of school sports including Cross Country for 5 years, Basketball for 5 years, Softball for 2 years, and Track and Field for 1 year. She has been recognized as a 1st Team All Star in Basketball and received the BCS Athlete of the Month award. She has also been the Class of 2025 Treasurer for the past 4 years, current Student Council President, Yearbook Club Treasurer, and a Helping Hands volunteer for the past 3 years. Cheyanne was inducted into the National Honor Society in 10th grade and was recently inducted into the National Technical Honor Society through her New Visions Innovation, Leadership, and Business program. At New Visions, Cheyanne has acted as the class treasurer and has also received awards for Student of the Month and BOCES Top of the Trade.
Cheyanne has also been an exemplary student, earning High Honor Roll status for each consecutive marking period since 9th grade. In addition to this, in 10th grade, Cheyanne also earned the Highest 2 Year Average Award in all four subjects including Math, Science, ELA, and Social Studies. Over the past two and half years, she has enrolled in numerous ACE college courses, and will be graduating with 40 college credits from SUNY Corning this year.
Cheyanne states that her favorite high school class was her math classes taken with Mrs. Allard. Her favorite high school memory was winning sectionals for basketball during the 2023-2024 season, Go Lady BraveScots! In her free time, Cheyanne enjoys hanging out with friends and family, playing basketball, drawing, and playing games. She plans to attend Elmira College this fall to earn her Bachelor’s Degree in Accounting. When asked the best advice she could give to younger classes, she quoted that of Winston Churchill. Don’t be afraid to make mistakes. “Success is not final, failure is not fatal: it is the courage to continue that counts!”
On behalf of BCS we’d like to wish Cheyanne the best of luck in her future endeavors! CONGRATULATIONS!


Wishing all mothers everywhere a very special day!
