From the Blackford County Schools Board meeting on July 21, 2026

The Blackford County Schools board approved its annual memorandum of understanding with Bowen Health for student mental health services, continuing a partnership that has been in place for approximately five years. The vote was 4-0.

Bowen Health provides skills coaching to students. The agreement is structurally unchanged from prior years. BCS now works with three mental health partners: Bowen Health, Meridian Health Services, and McKee Counseling, which joined the district last year.
