On Memorial Day, we remember and honor the fallen heroes who have selflessly served our nation. Their legacy of bravery and sacrifice remains an inspiration to us all.

Hello Cyclone Families, We'd like your feedback on our 2nd Semester Family Survey. This survey is designed to gather information about our school so we can actively use it to improve our work. We look forward to hearing from you and ask that surveys be completed by Friday, May 24. Our goal is 100% participation. https://forms.gle/9B3Wgnejf9HFbSGb7

🚨 Link to TV Segment Below 🚨 KSHB 41 visited Bishop Ward yesterday to see the halls where Ed Dwight '51 walked before he became one of the first black astronaut candidates in the 1960s and see his dream fulfilled of reaching space at the age of 90. As of Sunday, Ed is the oldest person to reach space after all these years of waiting! Having a figure like Ed Dwight for our students to look towards as they face their own challenges and chase their own dreams is something we at Bishop Ward don't take for granted. Thank you KSHB 41 and KSHB Alyssa Jackson for talking with Coach Duff, our students and seeing the history Ed Dwight made while at Bishop Ward! 🚀 WATCH HERE: https://www.kshb.com/news/local-news/your-voice/man-who-set-record-as-oldest-person-to-go-to-space-graduated-from-high-school-in-kck?fbclid=IwZXh0bgNhZW0CMTEAAR1ePmmrwAwtAsHQiUSCBgoXof7ouIQuDnTGDhxUq7kEBT03cbtmU8iACiY_aem_AULzTuA8sxzoeAD_gvT9rAzp-FPO_eHK55IiI5bFHYMVFCPUyieWcO3AEz6RtawHKcZYpeLkR1tyszIIdHZ0thQS
