A New Song

He has given me a new song to sing, a hymn of praise to our God.  Many will see what he has done and be amazed.  They will put their trust in the Lord.  Psalm 40: 3

                Eighteen years ago we walked through the front doors of an old brick school building eagerly anticipating new friendships, new teachers, new students and a new place to call our own.  What memories we have made! 

Playing in the shade of the two oak trees on School Street is just one of the memories our students share of their days at BCCS. Through the years we have experienced the building of school traditions.  We have learned, and taught, countless lessons both in the classroom and on the athletic fields, lessons that have shaped our character and the character of our students.

A gift to all Blazers from the first graduating class, the BCCS Alma Mater has become etched in our memories and has helped create in all of us a sense of fondness of our BCCS days. It is our school song.

Because we are a school deeply rooted in tradition, the original Alma Mater of Baconton High School was included in the last stanza.  The friendships we have formed over the years are definitely a strong bond.

In a Nutshell

Appreciate both the roots of tradition and the newness of a fresh start.

Thank you, Father, for a new song to sing.  I praise you for this new school year and for these new students you have placed in my care.  Father, forgive me for not having fully committed my work to you in the past.  As I commit this new school year to You, I believe that many people will see the marvelous work You are doing among our faculty and students, and they will be amazed.  Through the example of my faith this year, I pray others will put their trust in You.  May our strong bond be not only between our students and co-workers, but also with You.  In Christ’s name, Amen.
