JV and Varsity fall sports practices begin on Monday, August 21st. Modified-level practices begin Monday, August 28th. All athletes must have a current physical on file with the school to be eligible to participate in practice and have signed up for the sport through Final Forms on the school website.

For practices that are held in Dundee, the bus will leave Bradford School 30 minutes before the start of practice. So for a 5:00 pm start time of practice, the bus will leave Bradford at 4:30 pm.
It may be helpful to download the AS Mobile Activity Scheduler app on your mobile device to see the schedule of practices and games that way. Choose Section V and Dundee Central School. It will then allow you to choose the teams you would like to view.

The Bradford Central School District Board of Education acted upon a resolution related to its name and imagery at the Board of Education meeting on June 20, 2023. This was in response to NYSED’s updated requirements about names, images, logos, and mascots. In short, the BOE resolution commits the district to addressing its name and image. The District’s nickname will remain the Braves until a new name is recommended to and approved by the BOE. A community stakeholder group will be created to assist with this endeavor. The deadline for transitioning away from existing Native American imagery is June 1, 2025.
If you would like to learn more about this topic and/or be considered for further involvement, there will be an informational session held in the school cafeteria on Monday, July 31st at 6:00pm.
Wishing everyone a happy and safe Independence Day!

Dear BCS Parents and Guardians,
Please be advised that we are monitoring the air quality in our area frequently and are in close communication with our local department of health and school medical director. We have once again directed that no students will be allowed to go outside during the school day and for all windows and doors to remain closed. We do have purifiers in all of our classrooms and they have been turned on to help improve the quality of air. We expect conditions to remain poor throughout the day, but hopefully should start to see an improvement of conditions by tomorrow. I would strongly encourage you to keep your children inside this evening and until effects of the Canadian wildfires subside. Thank you.
Dear BCS Parents and Guardians,
Due to air quality concerns as a result of the Canadian wildfires, the district will have all students remain inside during the school day until further notice. We will continue to monitor this situation and work with our local health department until this matter has been resolved. Thank you.

Bradford Central School District is proud to announce this year's Class of 2023 Salutatorian, Chelsey Williams.
Chelsey is a pillar in the BCS School Community. She has played on the Varsity Volleyball and Softball team for 3 years, a member of Student Council for 4 years, and participated on the Academic All Stars team for one year. Chelsey’s positive attitude and motivation to succeed has been proven throughout the years as she has earned High Honor Roll every marking period for all four years of high school. In 2021, Chelsey received the Principal’s Leadership Award in addition to being inducted into the National Honor Society. Over the years she has also earned the Outstanding Student Award in 2022 in two subjects, Achievement Award in 2020 and 2021, as well as the Highest 2 Year Average in Math in 2021. This past year, Chelsey was accepted into and attended the New Visions Health Careers Exploration program at GST BOCES where she was also inducted into the National Technical Honor Society this spring.
Chelsey’s favorite high school class is Math, but specifically Algebra 2. Her favorite high school memories include playing on the volleyball team and the senior trip this year to Myrtle Beach, SC. In her free time, Chelsey enjoys reading, baking, painting, and listening to music. She will be attending Alfred State College this fall as an accepted student into the Radiologic Technology Program. When asked the best advice she could give to younger classes, she said “Never give up! Even when you feel like you can’t do it, or you’re not smart enough, push through and give it your all. You are capable of doing anything you put your mind to!
On behalf of BCS we’d like to wish Chelsey the best of luck in her future endeavors! CONGRATULATIONS!
This Thursday! Please remember to use the bus garage entrance!
