Our 2026 boys basketball team made history!
This season, our boys basketball team brought home a state championship, only the second in school history, and the first since 1984. What makes this team special goes beyond the scoreboard, they showed toughness, discipline, and a commitment to each other every single night.
Championship T-Shirts: Bonner Springs made history, and this championship hits different. This isn’t just a shirt, it’s the season we’ll never forget. Get yours and wear it proudly.
If you would like to order one of the championship shirts, here is your chance! We accept cash and card (there is a fee if you pay by card). The deadline for shirt orders will be April 12, 2026. To guarantee you receive your shirt, you need to do two things:

Dear Parents and Guardians,
On Wednesday, April 8 and Thursday, April 9, Bonner Springs High School will partner with the Bonner Springs Police Department and Bonner Springs Fire & EMS to host our Drive Brave for Prom activities for all juniors and seniors.
These events are designed to raise awareness about safe decision-making during prom season. While we aim to keep disruptions to the school day minimal, we believe this experience is important and well worth the small adjustments to students’ schedules.
Here’s what to expect:
Wednesday (April 8):
During 5th hour, community partners—including law enforcement and emergency services—will host informational stations in the commons and gym. Students can visit these during lunch, and some classes may also attend.
Thursday (April 9):
At 8:00 AM, all juniors and seniors will report to the auditorium for a brief presentation from Mothers Against Drunk Driving (MADD). Following the presentation, students will move to the student parking lot to observe a mock crash demonstration led by our local first responders. This portion will conclude near the end of seminar, after which students will return to class and resume a normal schedule.
We understand that portions of this program, particularly the mock crash demonstration, may be emotional for some students. Please know that school counselors and social workers will be available throughout the event to provide support for any student who may need it.
This program has had a powerful impact in the past, and we are grateful for the continued support of our community partners in helping reinforce safe and responsible choices for our students.
Thank you for your flexibility and support. If you have any questions, please don’t hesitate to reach out.

Congratulations to Superintendent Rick Moulin as he was awarded the NAACP Louisa Fletcher Excellence in Education Award for 2026!
Mr. Moulin was recognized for the following:
"Rick has grown up in this community since third grade, graduating from BSHS in 1990. He has contributed to our education system as a student, teacher, principal and superintendent, and continues to use his expertise to support its development. He has been an advocate for diversity in our schools and our community. As a BS NAACP member, he has shown his support each year for the Freedom Fund banquet, by grilling at Tiblow Days, and at the State NAACP meetings hosted by Bonner Springs, he has given the greeting addressing the support of NAACP's principles and goals. Rick is an excellent role model."
Mrs. Fletcher was an advocate for the rights of African Americans not only in this community, but at the state and national levels as well. Since 2017, BS NAACP has given a Louisa Fletcher "Excellence in Education" award.

Congratulations to our Braves boys basketball team on their win tonight! Next, they will travel to Wichita State University to play at Koch Arena this Thursday night, March 12, at 8 p.m. for the semifinal round of the KSHSAA 5A State Tournament!
Because the team is advancing and we anticipate many families traveling to Wichita to support the team Thursday evening, the BSHS and CMS Family Engagement Nights will be postponed. Originally scheduled for this Thursday, they will now be moved to Thursday, March 26th from 3:30 - 7:30 p.m. (The BSHS band pre-festival solo and ensemble recital already scheduled for March 26th will continue as scheduled at 7 p.m.)
Elementary school conferences will still take place on Thursday, March 12. If an elementary teacher would like to attend the state basketball tournament they will be allowed to do so. If elementary students are impacted because a staff member is not available Thursday evening, individual teachers will reach out to reschedule parent teacher conferences. Along that same line, if your family is planning to cheer on the Braves in Wichita Thursday night, please just contact your child’s teacher to reschedule your conference appointment.
Thank you for your understanding, and please join us in cheering on our Braves as they continue their season!

Dear Seniors and Families,
We know this time of year is busy, but we truly need your help. Project Grad doesn’t happen without the support of senior families, and right now we still have Super Bowl squares available that directly fund this safe, memorable celebration for your class. It’s $20 per square, with half going to event costs and half to game payouts, and every single purchase makes a real difference. If you’ve been meaning to contribute but haven’t yet, please consider doing so now — our seniors deserve a great night, and we can only make that happen together.
Super Bowl squares are simple and fun: once all squares are sold, numbers 0–9 are randomly assigned to each team, and winners are determined by the last digit of each team’s score at the end of each quarter and the end of regulation. For example, if you have 6 and 7 for the two teams and the score is 16 to 27, you win. We plan to draw numbers on Saturday evening once all squares are sold, so it’s important to get your square purchased as soon as possible.
To buy a square, you can pay via Venmo (@HCampbell03), CashApp ($shcampbell03) or send $20 to BSHS with your Senior. An updated board with names will be available for viewing and purchasing squares at Friday night's home basketball games. If you have any questions, contact Heather Campbell (campbellh@usd204.net).
Updated Board
Thank you for supporting Project Grad,
Project Grad '26 committee
