Honoring our heroes today and every day. 🇺🇸❤️
Today, we extend our deepest gratitude to all of our veteran staff members and community heroes who have served our country. Your courage inspires our students every single day to dream big and give back. We celebrate our incredible veterans today while we are still thinking about last month’s Board meeting, when we finally handed a deserving Vietnam Era veteran his Bay City Central High School diploma—nearly six decades after he was drafted in 1967. 🎓🇺🇸
Every veteran in our district carries a story of service, dedication, and resilience. Thank you for your service.

In case you missed it, here is the story of our latest graduate of Bay City Central High School: At the October 13 meeting, our Board of Education had the honor and privilege of awarding Vietnam Veteran Warren Harding his official Bay City Central High School diploma. When Warren was drafted in 1967, he put his high school dreams on hold and answered the call to serve our country. Decades later, as allowed under Public Act 181 of 2001, our Board of Education officially presented Mr. Harding with his high school diploma. Our entire school community stood together to celebrate his sacrifice and welcome him home as an official graduate, complete with a special performance of our Bay City Central High Alma Mater, performed by current student Adriana on the flute.
