The Broadalbin-Perth varsity football team is launching a new era this fall as the district transitions from NYSPHSAA Class C 11-man football to an 8-man football format.

The strategic decision addresses the shift in participation numbers following the graduation of 17 seniors last spring. Without a junior varsity team this year, the move allows student-athletes in grades 9-12 to play safely and competitively at the varsity level.

The stage is set as Broadalbin-Perth Performing Arts students prepare to present this summer’s production of “Annie Jr.,” the beloved musical featuring unforgettable songs, colorful characters, and a heartwarming story about hope, family, and perseverance. Performances are scheduled for 6:30 p.m., Thursday and Friday, Aug. 6-7, in the big gymnasium at the B-P elementary campus.

As the 2025-26 school year came to a close, Broadalbin-Perth Middle School recognized its June Students of the Month and fourth-quarter True Patriot Award recipients. These students have demonstrated what it means to be a Broadalbin-Perth Patriot through their character, leadership, perseverance, kindness, and commitment to the school community.

During the last quarter of the school year, Broadalbin-Perth fourth graders put their creativity and computer science skills on display by designing and programming their own interactive clicker games using Scratch.

Near the end of the school year, students in Anna Kittredge’s home and careers classes at Broadalbin-Perth Middle School put their teamwork, creativity, and leadership skills into action by planning and completing a series of service projects designed to make a positive impact both in the school and throughout the community.
