First Day of school for all students is August 26, 2020
Dear Bishop Moore Catholic families,
We spent this week welcoming our faculty back to campus and preparing them for success in the onsite and virtual classrooms. We welcomed new faculty members and staff including our new
Every year our Diocese chooses a theme for our school community to meditate on throughout the year. This year, we will be reflecting on the verse Come, Follow Me. When the Lord calls us, He very rarely also shares a complete roadmap or plan for the rest of our lives. Very beautifully in St. John's Gospel, Jesus simply tells seekers Come and See. The Lord wants us to be with Him. All of Jesus' mission and salvation history culminates in His invitation for us to be with Him. What does it mean to be a Christian? What is discipleship? A disciple is someone who is with the Lord, who knows they are loved and desired by Him, and who boldly walks with Him wherever He leads. Throughout the upcoming year, we will be sharing reflections and various prayerful activities so that we can spend time asking the Lord how He is calling us to follow Him this year.
The safety of our students, faculty and staff are of the utmost importance to us. Please review the procedures and policies we developed, in coordination with the Diocese of Orlando Catholic Schools, to safeguard against the spread of COVID-19.
In Christ,
The BMC Administrative Team

Purchasing Your E-Texts
Our focus has remained on enhancing student learning while minimizing costs and providing convenience. Bishop Moore Catholic has partnered with EdTech Software as the supplier of all of our e-textbook needs. Most, but not all courses have a selected e-text.
Each student will have access to e-textbooks after paying for their books through EdTech Software. Once books are paid for, the student will have their customized virtual bookshelf available.
Accessing Your EdTech Pages and Purchasing Required E-Texts
Please view the instructions on how to purchase the required e-texts and other course materials in the flyer, below.
Each student will have access to their own individual page once he/she signs on to the school's bookstore at bmc.shelfit.com.
Each student is required to purchase required e-texts from EdTech.
Students are expected to purchase books prior to the beginning of the school year and have access to all e-texts on their own personal devices on the first day of school.
Purchasing Information
For better results eBooks may be purchased from an i-Pad or a computer through the web address and not the app.
