🌟 Empowering Our School Leaders & Student Support Team at SCALI! 🌟
Recently, Bedford County Schools school counselors, Community in Schools partners, administrators, and our SEL & Mental Health Supervisor came together at the School Counselor and Administrators Leadership Institute (SCALI) to learn, grow and connect. 💼✨🤝

🌾🎶Learning History the Hands On Way!🎶🌾
All 4th graders in #BedfordCountySchools recently stepped back in time at the American Mule & Bluegrass Festival! 🎉
Students experienced history up close as they learned about blacksmithing 🔨, mule and donkey care 🫏, traditional homesteading skills 🌾, honeybees 🐝 and music 🎶. They even enjoyed ice cream churned by a mule! 🍦
