It was launch day for the catapults made by Mr. Scurlock's Science of Energy class! Students have been working hard both in and out of school over the last 4 weeks to research, design and build their catapults in order to study potential and kinetic energies! This is a fan favorite project every year and a great way to study energy with real world data.

As BRHS approaches the end of the 1st Quarter (officially 10/16/26), we want to take a moment to recognize the great attendance we have had so far this year. As a whole, BRHS has 93.30% average daily attendance. This has risen when compared to previous years. By having consistent attendance, students have a higher chance of achieving academic success and it helps prepare them for life after high school. Go Knights!

Today Mr. Rhodes's 1st Hour class went through a mock trial of BOE vs Mergens, which looked at the Equal Access Act and if it violated the Establishment Clause of the First Amendment. This was a great opportunity for students to develop an understanding of these landmark legal cases.
Other Cases they examined included Hazelwood v. Kuhlmeier, Wallace v. Jaffree, and Bethel v. Fraser.

We are approximately 6 weeks away from the start of the high school wrestling season- November 9th! Now is the time to start training and getting prepared!!
Start with your diet and exercise now - It will make the transition a lot easier when it comes time!
To get ready for the season, DeLand-Weldon is going to host open weights at DeLand-Weldon weight room Tuesday and Thursday morning beginning October 6th! From 630am-730am. They are also going to have open weights and open mats at DW weight room on Tuesday and Wednesday evenings from 6pm-8pm. Enter through the North gym door.
This is open to anyone and everyone whether you wrestle or not! If you or your friends or other sports related teammates are even remotely interested- come on out and give it a try!
This is out of season- therefore the coaches will not be coaching- supervision is only provided, weights and mat time will be run by current wrestlers!
Looking forward to getting things started, and we have added contests to our schedule this year!
