WE HAVE A STATE CHAMPION…AND NOW HE’S FAMOUS!

Today we took a little field trip to surprise 8th grader Ethan Jiles with his newly posted IDOT State Champion sign! IDOT honors state champions by displaying a sign in their honor for one year, and Ethan certainly earned his!

Ethan brought home 1st place in both the 100M and 200M, and it was pretty special getting to see his reaction when he saw his sign for the first time. He was both humble and excited—exactly the kind of young man we are proud to have representing BHJH.

Congratulations, Ethan! We are incredibly proud of you and all you have accomplished. And with your name officially on a highway sign, I think it’s safe to say…you’re famous now!

Learning to read is one of the most complex things our brains do, and many students need extra support along the way. If you've ever wondered how to better help your child or just want to connect with other parents who understand, the Vermilion County Regional Office of Education and ROESchoolworks are partnering on a wonderful local opportunity!

One of the most important things to remember: you are not alone, and neither is your child!

Check out the flyer below for dates and details. 💙📖
