Richland High School Student Completes Eagle Scout Project #BISDShines

Steven Graham, Richland High School student and former North Ridge Middle School student, recently worked with several North Ridge teachers for his Eagle Scout project. Ms. Caceres, Mrs. Gorman and Mrs. Lord met with Steven several times to listen to his plan and then watch him put it into action. For his project, Steven chose to “revitalize” the science shed. After cleaning it out, replacing the flooring and building shelves, he sanded down and painted the outside of the shed. They are all proud of Steven and thank him for his hard work and perseverance in completing this task to earn his Eagle Scout. Steven is modeling BISD’s focus on excellence, integrity and service. #BISDShines
