Message from Superintendent-
Hello Bent County Families and Community-
We are deeply aware of the increase in cases both locally and our surrounding neighbors. I want to share with families that we are continuing to work diligently to provide a safe environment for students and staff. The District will continue to work closely with BCPH to be able to provide accurate and credible information for our families. I strongly encourage the use of the CDPHE COVID Dial Dashboard to track information at the local and state levels by county.
