Principal Scott Bacon was recognized as the Area One Principal Honoree at the Kansas Association of Secondary School Principals Fall Conference on Nov. 4.

One principal is chosen from each of the six areas in the state.

Bacon said winning the award wasn’t about him alone.

“The only way I can accept the recommendation is on behalf of this school,” he said. “It’s not about me. It’s about the staff and students.”

Bacon said winning the award motivates him to improve BV even more.

“It all goes back to the dream for this school,” he said. “The challenge is to try to make the school the best it can be, piece by piece.”
