YEARBOOK UPDATE: Our yearbook company has reached out to notify us that there are delays in the production and shipping of yearbooks nationwide due to COVID-19. Plants responsible for printing the books have been closed or short-staffed during this time. We will provide additional updates as we receive information on the shipment of the yearbook.
Also due to school closures, unfortunately the traditional experience of yearbook signing is not available to our students. In light of this, our yearbook company is offering a digital signing experience for all students who have purchased a yearbook. Students can sign up for this experience and send a unique link to their friends who can digitally sign their yearbook. At the conclusion of the digital signing experience, the district will print the digital pages and send them to students to be included in their yearbook. To sign up for the digital signing experience, please visit https://yearbooksigning.jostens.com to create an account.
Budget Vote Update- Absentee ballots can be dropped off at the school until 5:00 PM on Tuesday, June 9th. Absentee ballots can now be accepted by mail until Tuesday, June 16th. Please note the distinction in dates between a hand delivered ballot and a mailed ballot. This new guidance was ordered by Governor Cuomo this afternoon. No election results will be known until after all mailed ballots are received on June 16th.
Monday, June 8 will be a pick up and drop off of materials.
Due to the slow arrival of ballots, the school will be open from 8:00 AM - 8:00 PM tomorrow for qualified voters to come and pick-up or drop off an absentee ballot. Ballots were mailed to all registered voters in both Schuyler and Steuben counties. There seems to be a delay in ballots arriving to residents in Steuben county (Savona addresses). If you have not yet received your ballot please come to the school so one can be provided to you. Thank you for your patience and understanding.
Dear Community Members,
Listed below are some points to consider regarding the 2020-2021 Bradford Central School District Budget Vote.
1. If you are a qualified voter but have not yet received a budget ballot please contact the school so one can be provided to you.
2. Please check your mail carefully, as ballots are coming in a plain white elongated envelope.
3. Due to events going on in mail distribution centers there may be an increase in delivery time. If possible, it might be wise to drop your ballot off directly at the school to ensure it arrives before the 5:00 PM deadline on Tuesday, June 9th. A secure ballot box has been placed in the school foyer and is accessible to the public between 8:00 AM and 8:00 PM on Monday through Thursday.
Thank you for your participation in the budget vote process.
Dear Community Members,
A secure ballot box has been placed in the foyer of the Bradford Central School District for you to return your budget vote ballot.

All ballots must be returned to the District by 5:00 PM on June 9, 2020. Thank you for your participation.
