Back in the swing of things at BHCS

Back in the swing of things: Students at Blue Hill Consolidated School were back in class on Tuesday, September 4. While some raced off the bus and into the school, others were escorted by parents (who may or may not have had a tear in their eye). The first order of business was to get reacquainted at the playground.
