Summer's been great, but we just can't wait to see our Hatchets again - so we've decided to have a Back to School Bash on Tuesday, August 4, from 1–3 p.m. at Bad Axe City Park to kick off the upcoming school year!
Join us for fun activities the whole family can enjoy, & snatch up some school supplies while you're at it!

Help us fill our “Student Summer Spotlight” wall! ☀️📸🪓
We want to celebrate all the amazing things our BA students are doing this summer: sports, drama, art, music, military, 4-H/FFA, Campus Life, & more!

🎉 Help Us Welcome Our Hatchets! 🪓
Our new playground fence at Bad Axe Elementary is up, and we want to make it a warm, welcoming space with a banner that greets students and showcases our school.
Now we need your help! Share your best slogan ideas for our new banner by clicking the Google Form link below. We can't wait to see your creativity and school spirit!

The work is underway, and we're excited to see the progress being made at the new Bad Axe Elementary School!
As we prepare to welcome our students back, we're focused on creating a warm, inviting, and safe new home for our Hatchets. From major construction milestones to the finishing touches - like new signage and window coverings - every improvement is helping transform the building into a place where students can learn, grow, and thrive.
We can't wait to share more updates as this exciting project continues! 🪓💛💙

Congratulations to Mollie Kaczuk, Hunter Dheel, and Caitlyn Bulla on being named the Michigan FFA Jr. High Horse Judging State Champions! A special thank you to Jade Stilson, our high school mentor, for coaching all of our horse judging teams.
We are so proud of all of you!




While we celebrated our amazing 2nd-grade Hatchets& all they have accomplished this year, we also took time to honor 2nd-grade teacher, Mrs. Gordon, as she begins her retirement.
BAPS is a better place because of Mrs. Gordon & the countless young minds she has nurtured & helped grow throughout the years. Her dedication, kindness, & impact on our students will be felt for generations to come.
We wish her nothing but happiness and success as she begins this exciting new chapter in life. Thank you for everything, Mrs. Gordon!
