Parent Information:
National Day of Prayer:
Thursday, May 3rd is National Day of Prayer. Because the school track meet is that day, students and staff will meet in the gym on Friday May 4th for a moment of prayer at 9a.m. Family members are welcome to join us.   

Last Day of School:
It's hard to believe this is the last month of school! We have enjoyed this entire school year with your children and hope to see you back next year. On the last day of school (Friday, May 18) we will be having an End-of-Year Celebration. It will include a Continuation Ceremony for our preschool children who will be moving on to Kindergarten in the new school year. It will be a time to recognize these students and will begin at 10:30am in the gym. School dismisses at 11:30, followed by the All School Family Picnic at 12:00 on the school playground. This is a potluck for the entire family and preschool families are asked to bring a main dish to share. There will be bump & jumps, Gelu Italian Ice for $2, and good fellowship.

Registration Packets & Fees:
If you plan for your child to attend BCPS/BCS next year but have not turned in your registration fee and packet, please do so as soon as possible. The curriculum fee for kindergarten is due May 15th.

Summer Birthdays:
On May 8th & 9th we will be recognizing all children who have summer birthdays. If you have any questions or would like to bring something for the celebration, please check with your child's teacher.

*Reminder that Curriculum Fees of $225 are due May 15th for the 
2018/2019 school year.*
