Today, November, 11, 2022 we were honored to celebrate Veteran's Day with an assembly to honor all that are serving and have served. Students presented, sang, read poems and stories, watched a slideshow of support, and listened to Mr. Brian Irizarry, our featured speaker, and each veteran to learn about the importance of service, discipline, and courage. This annual assembly was special in every way.

Dear Baraga Families,
This letter is to inform you of a serious issue that was brought to our district’s attention earlier today.
On Friday, November 4, 2022, Baraga Area Schools were alerted by the Baraga Police Department that a verbal threat of violence was reported to them today. They are continuing to actively investigate the information provided to them and will continue to keep district staff informed of any new developments.
At no time today was there any immediate danger to any student or staff member. Law enforcement personnel have been present in the building. The procedures we have in place ensured little disruption to other students in the building.
We understand situations such as this are concerning to parents, students, and the greater community. We want you to be aware that we are taking steps to ensure a safe dismissal, including continued law enforcement involvement. The safety of our students, staff, and community is our highest priority.
Please see the letter below.
