Our spirit wear printing person has tried very hard to help us complete our spirit wear order. However, we had some items and sizes that were out of stock from his supplier. We are so sorry but spirit wear will not be coming home today. We apologize for the inconvenience and thank you for your understanding and patience.
Have a great holiday break.

What an inspiring day for USD 204! Educator and author Todd Whitaker joined our staff on Wednesday morning for a professional development session filled with encouragement, insight, and motivation to keep making a difference for our students. A special thank you to the Bonner Springs/Edwardsville Education Foundation for sponsoring the keynote address and making this meaningful event possible. 🧡


🎙️ New Episode of Talk 204! Superintendent Rick Moulin sits down with longtime Bonner Springs leader Dr. Jerry Abbott—retiring after years of dedicated service to USD 204 and the Bonner Springs/Edwardsville Education Foundation—and Lisa Terrell, a proud BSHS alum who has dedicated more than three decades to supporting students as a beloved counselor and is now stepping into her new role as Foundation Director. Together, Rick, Jerry, and Lisa reflect on decades of shared commitment to students and the community. They talk about the Foundation’s incredible growth under Dr. Abbott’s leadership, the power of giving back, and how community support continues to open doors for USD 204 students. It’s a heartfelt conversation about legacy, leadership, and the enduring spirit that makes Bonner Springs and Edwardsville such special places to call home. 🧡🖤 🔗 https://rss.com/podcasts/talk204/2264249/
