It's a big day for BAPS! Come see our Lady Hatchets dominate the court today, August 22, at the Hatchet Invitational! Let's Go Blue! 💙

At the heart of Bad Axe Public Schools is a group of incredible people who work together to make our school a safe, nurturing place for Hatchets to learn.
We kicked off the school year by recognizing a few of the individuals with anywhere from five to 30 years of service here at BAPS.
From office aids, to teachers, and even groundskeepers, it takes a village...& we love our Hatchet Village. 💙 💛
