It is with great sadness that the Bloom-Vernon Local School District must share the news that Mr. Rodney Barnett passed away earlier today. Mr. Barnett has been a part of the school district for over 50 years. He served in a variety of roles, ranging from English teacher to the "Voice of the Jeeps" and everything in between. Our district has lost a huge part of our family with his passing. Our thoughts and prayers are with Sue, Kristin, Jesse, Alyssa, Asa, and all that knew him. He will be greatly missed.
If any student or staff member needs support, counselors will be available tomorrow morning.
