The annual Broadway Night was held again over two nights, Wednesday, February 25, and Thursday, February 26, when the Bridgewater-Raritan High School Choir program served as the gracious host to the Bridgewater-Raritan Middle School, Eisenhower Intermediate School, and Hillside Intermediate School students, who performed on the stage of the high school auditorium.

Bridgewater-Raritan High School served as the host to the Forensics Invitational

The Bridgewater-Raritan High School Forensics, or Speech and Debate Team, served as the host to the Bridgewater-Raritan Invitational Forensics tournament on campus on February 28.



This event brought together hundreds of participants, judges, and volunteers for a day that showcased just how much the program has grown. Coming off last year's historic return to home and serving as the host after a six-year absence, the 2026 Bridgewater-Raritan Invitational raised the bar even further, and what made it truly stand out was how almost entirely student-run the tournament was.
