📢Important Update for Families About Skyward📢
#BedfordCountySchools is replacing Skyward and transitioning to a new student information system that provides parents and caregivers with a more user-friendly, modern and updated way to track their student's progress.
At this time, Skyward is CLOSED due to end-of-year maintenance and the process of transitioning to the new system.
We understand families rely on access to student information, and we appreciate your patience during this transition. While we do not have an exact timeline yet, the new system is expected to be available in August.
We will continue to keep families informed and share updates as more information becomes available. Thank you for your patience and partnership as we work to provide an improved experience for our families!

🐾🚓 K9 Officers in Action! 🚓🐾
Students from #CascadeElementarySchool and #CascadeMiddleSchool's Summer Learning Camp recently had an exciting visit from Officers Brock Horner and Dylan Bliss along with their K9 partners, Trigger and Jerry.🌟
During the visit, #students learned how police dogs use their powerful sense of smell to help locate people and detect drugs during searches. Officers demonstrated how K9s can track scents in different ways, including following odor trails left on the ground and in the air.🐾
Students also learned about the extensive training K9 officers undergo, including obedience, scent detection, tracking and search work, as well as what daily life and service look like for working police dogs.
Experiences like these help students connect classroom learning to real-world careers while gaining a deeper understanding of how highly trained K9 teams support law enforcement and keep communities safe.🏫✨
