Student Voice Alive & Well at Bunker Hill CUSD 8!
Last Friday, at the inaugural conference of the Association of Illinois Rural and Small Schools (AIRSS), Bunker Hill CUSD 8 was asked to share successful strategies for student career success. Rather than speaking about what the district was doing for students, BHHS student Grace Burris took the stage to share what the district was doing WITH students! Inspire, Empower, Innovate in action! #BH8Rising
