Dear BOLD families,
Last night, the BOLD Board of Directors approved a change to the school calendar. The first day of school for K-12 will now be on Tuesday, September 2nd.
The reasons for this delay include:
Teachers need more time to set up their classrooms and prepare for students.
Custodial staff need more time to get the school ready for students.
Approving this delay now will give families time to adjust their schedules accordingly.
We appreciate your patience, trust, and understanding as we do our best to ensure the facilities and staff are as prepared as possible to welcome students back from summer vacation.
Sincerely,
Tim Tydlacka

Greetings BOLD Community
My name is Tim Tydlacka, and I am in my 31st year in education. I am grateful for the opportunity to serve as superintendent and to be a part of the BOLD community.
I grew up in Hutchinson, MN in the ‘70’s and ‘80’s, when it was a relatively small town. However, I have spent most of my adult life moving around quite a bit, living in Mexico, Puerto Rico, St. Cloud, Duluth, and the Twin Cities.
Although I have spent the last 7 years in the administrative world, I have also served as a high school English teacher for the first 23 years of my career. If you ever want to talk about books, let me know. I can always find time for that.
My number one priority is student safety, and my number two priority is student learning. When students are learning in a safe and accepting environment, a foundation of security is formed upon which we can build, develop, achieve, and grow as a school culture and community.
It is no secret that we need to work on our financial situation, and so it is important to know that we plan to move forward with integrity to develop a united community of trust that will elevate BOLD and the surrounding community.
I take my job seriously as a public servant, so please reach out to me if there is anything you would like to discuss.
Please feel free to contact me at 320-523-1031.
Sincerely,
Tim Tydlacka

On Saturday, April 19th, the NHS completed their spring Adopt-A-Highway ditch cleaning along their section of Hwy 7 between Lake Lillian and Hwy 71. Another 14 bags of trash were collected. Fun was had and memories were made!
HUGE THANK YOU to all who donated blood this year for one or more of the four NHS sponsored blood drives. In total , from all four drives, 162 units were collected. Each unit has the potential to save up to 3 lives so the impact of donors could help around 486 people!
