🇺🇸✨ Happy Flag Day! ✨🇺🇸

Today, we celebrate the Stars & Stripes and the important meaning behind our nation’s flag. ❤️🤍💙 Flag Day is observed each year on June 14, marking the day in 1777 when the Continental Congress approved the design of the American flag.
Our flag is full of history and symbolism! The 13 stripes represent the original 13 colonies, and the 50 stars represent the 50 states that make up our country today. Together, they remind us of America’s beginnings, growth, unity, and shared spirit. 🌟
Our flag is more than red, white, and blue — it represents freedom, courage, hope, and the history we share as Americans.

Want to learn more about the history of Flag Day and why we celebrate? Check out this great resource from the Library of Congress:

Let’s wave our flags high and celebrate with pride! 🎉🇺🇸

Every graduation celebration tells a story of hard work, perseverance, growth, and exciting new beginnings. For our seniors, the Graduation Dinner is a special way for BCS to honor that story, celebrate this important milestone, and create a memorable evening with the people who have supported them along the way. 💙

This year, our Tiffin seniors were invited to enjoy a beautiful sit-down dinner at Ironwood Steakhouse in Tiffin, OH, located at the Mohawk Golf & Country Club, along with two guests of their choice. It was such a wonderful evening filled with smiles, laughter, great food, and plenty of proud moments! 🍽️🎉
