Veterans Day Alumni Achievement: Jacob Bennitt (‘14) became a Nuclear Mechanic in the Navy after graduation. He was part of 2 deployments of the USS Harry S. Truman in the Arctic Circle, Mediterranean Sea, and Arabian Sea, with a total service of just over 9 years. For 3 years, Jacob was stationed in a Ballistic Missile Submarine that transitioned to a Moored Training Ship where he was part of a defueling process that took thousands of people and hours to accomplish. In 2024, Jacob joined the University of Notre Dame as a Power Plant Operator and became Shift Supervisor earlier this year. The power plant is responsible for generating steam, electricity, and water for campus. During his time in the Navy, Jacob was awarded 3 Navy and Marine Corps Achievement Medals (NAM). NAMs are awarded to Navy and Marine Corps personnel for meritorious service or achievement in either combat or non-combat situations. He is married to Jensyn (Enders) Bennitt, and they have 2 boys: Landon (6 years old) and Layne (3 years old).

🌎🚨 WORLD CHAMPION ALERT! 🚨🌎
Let's give a HUGE shoutout to Bremen High School's own Payton Ballinger, who just absolutely dominated at the World Armwrestling Championship in Baku, Azerbaijan!

Payton competed in the Teens 78kg class and walked away as the Undefeated Right Hand World Armwrestling Champion! Talk about strength and dedication! 💪🏆

Here's what Payton had to say about the experience:

"This was an amazing tournament, and I’m so glad I got to represent Bremen and that American Flag. It was a hard competition, but all the training I put in really paid off and made it to where I could bring home that World Champion Title. Standing on the podium with the American flag was an unbelievable feeling."

Students in Mrs. Reed’s marketing class participated in the Marshmallow Challenge today! Their job was to build the largest free-standing tower with limited supplies.

This activity encourages teamwork and communication while highlighting the value of prototyping and experimentation. It also illustrates different approaches to problem-solving while teaching the importance of constraints. Teams learn to pivot, rethink, and try again.

This evening, 100 Bremen High School students, coaches, staff members and families volunteered to pack meals for the organization Feed My Starving Children. On Friday, our middle schoolers have an opportunity to do the same!
