Bringing Up Grades
Headed up by Kiwanian J.R. RoBards, the BUGS program is in its third year at West Middle School. In the program, students who have been identified as in need of grade intervention are challenged to bring up certain grades, and those who are successful are rewarded with a party and recognition.
2011-12 BUGS program
Shelbyville Kiwanis members kicked off the 2011-12 Bringing Up Grades program on Nov. 14 by honoring four students from last year who will continue the program this year. Here, J.R. RoBards, program coordinator, signs up students for the new year and encourages them to make goals to improve their grade in at least one subject.
