Ben's Buzz
Dear BFCCPS Community,
We hope you had a wonderful Thanksgiving Break! I hope that you will join us for the annual BFCCPS Holiday Concert on Thursday, December 7th. Members of the Wind Ensemble, Symphonic Band and the BFCCPS Chorus will perform starting at 7pm. This performance is always delightful and a wonderful celebration of musical education at BFCCPS. We hope to see you there!
Living in New England the weather can be unpredictable at times. We ask you to please ensure your children come to school daily with jackets, hats, coats etc as they will continue to attend outdoor recess and Physical
Education as often as possible.
With winter approaching we remind you that you can learn more how we handle weather related closures or delays on
this page
of the website.
 If you would like to subscribe additional members of your family to Ben's Buzz, you can do so by clicking here.
