In compliance with American Rescue Plan: Elementary and Secondary School Emergency Relief Fund (ARP ESSER)
This plan was developed in coordination between district certified and non-certified staff, administrators, students, parents, and community agencies.
As we plan for the return to In-person instruction we must recognize the Covid-19 virus is still a threat to the safety and welfare of our staff and students. The Bright Local School District must be vigilant in our approach to ensure the safety of all our stakeholders as a result the following principles will guide our district as we move forward with the opening of schools.
The Bright Local School District will implement recommended safety protocols to the highest degree possible.
The Bright Local School District will work closely with the Highland County Health Department to promote health and safety in all school buildings
The Bright Local School District will be transparent with all stakeholders that some level of risk will always be present when children and school district employees occupy school facilities.
Starting on June 2, Bright Local will transition to our Summer Meal Pick-up Schedule each week on Wednesday. Please call Debbie Robertson at 937-442-3114 if you have any questions or if you would like your name added/removed from the list. We will continue distributing ten meals per week (five breakfasts and five lunches).

Dear Bright Local Families,
In making plans for the 2021-2022 school year, the Bright Local School District will continue to put the health and safety of our students and staff at the forefront of our planning efforts. The Bright Local School District will work closely with our local health department to assure that we continue to follow CDC guidelines.
It is my hope that we will continue to see minimal cases of the COVID-19 virus within our schools. I believe that the best education takes place in the school setting with direct instruction from a classroom teacher who can assist students and provide remediation when necessary. Therefore, it is my intention, at this time, to return to in-person learning five days a week, for the
2021-2022 school year. We will no longer be offering our virtual PLP option at Bright Elementary School. I do want to be clear that if we see an increase in the number of positive cases within our school community then we may need to re-address my decision.
Thank you for your understanding,Michael Bick, SuperintendentBright Local Schools
