On Thursday morning, November 5th, Bacon Academy juniors and seniors had the distinct privilege of participating in a special Veterans Day Panel from 7:30 to 9:00 a.m. Organized by Thomas Frickman and the Bacon Academy Student Council, this meaningful event brought military veterans and currently serving members of the United States Armed Forces, including parents and grandparents from our own community. 

 

HOBY Applications

Nominations for the 2027 Hugh O'Brian Youth Leadership Seminar are open. HOBY motivates and develops future leaders through a program exclusively for high school sophomores. The HOBY leadership seminar is an excellent opportunity for Bacon Academy sophomores to learn powerful leadership skills by interacting skills and interacting with dynamic leadership instructors and like-minded students from across the state. Being a HOBY participant is also looked upon favorably by top colleges and universities!

BA Parent Forum

We are excited to welcome families to our next Bacon Academy Parent Forum! Our meeting will be held on November 9th, 2026, from 5:00–6:00 p.m. in the Library Media Center.
The Parent Forum provides families with an opportunity to hear about upcoming events, school programs and offerings, important school updates, and much more. It is also a great way to stay connected with what is happening at Bacon Academy and ask questions.
At our November 9th meeting, we will feature a presentation from Youth Services. Additionally, our new Assistant Principal, Christian Marcinczyk, will be in attendance, giving families an opportunity to meet her and welcome her to the Bacon Academy community.

We hope to see you there!
