Dear BFCCPS Community,
Congratulations to the Grade Five and Six students who presented their Social Studies Fair presentations today in the Learning Commons. Academic Fairs are an important part of our middle school curriculum and as of today, all students in Grades Five through Eight have completed both their French Fair and Social Studies fair projects.
We are pleased to announce the registration for our second season of clubs and activities which will run from January 6 through March 20.
You'll find the upcoming programs linked here
. If you have any questions about a specific club, please reach out to the respective event organizer listed below. I
f you require financial assistance for a program, please email jlevering@bfccps.org for more information.
Lastly, please be sure to have your children check the Lost and Found before they leave for school vacation. There are lots of belongings, glasses, coats, boots etc.
Don't forget that Friday, December 20th will be an early release for all students at noon; BFCCPS does not hold our regular afterschool care on half days, and clubs and activities will not meet. If your child attends an off-site after school care, please contact them directly to see if they offer care on our half day. If you have a change to your regular dismissal method, please update
School Dismissal Manager
accordingly.
Wishing you all a wonderful winter break with your families, we look forward to seeing you when school re-opens on January 2nd.
Mr Perna
BFCCPS

2020-2021 Enrollment Now Open
Enrollment applications for the 2020-2021 school year are now available.
Once a student is accepted, they need not reapply as their spot is protected for as long as they attend the school.However, if a child has not been accepted and is on the waiting list, you will need to re-apply each year as the waiting list is not held from year to year. If you have a student on the waiting list, or a sibling at home who is age appropriate for Kindergarten next year, now is the time to apply.
Learn more here.
The Student Council will hold a
winter social for students in Kindergarten through Grade Two
on Friday, January 10th from 6-7:30 pm. The event will feature a variety of games, activities and crafts for the kids to participate in including dancing, board games and more. Tickets will be sold in the weeks before the social date, and no tickets will be sold at the door. Please note that all students attendees must be accompanied by a guardian, this is not a drop off activity.

BFCCPS Student Banking Signup
The PCO is pleased to announce that student banking through Dean Bank will resume on Thursday mornings beginning on January 9, 2020 for students in Kindergarten through Grade Four. We will need 5 parent volunteers each week to help as tellers. We would greatly appreciate a consistent group of volunteers, so please signup on a weekly, biweekly or monthly basis. Please review the available slots below and click on the button to sign up. Thank you so much for your help!
YEARBOOK VOLUNTEERS NEEDED
The PCO is seeking volunteers to help with this year‘s yearbook pages for grades K-5. One or two parents are needed to represent each grade and help layout a page of candid photos. Additionally, other parents will be asked to upload their favorite photos of their kids for possible inclusion in the yearbook. The time commitment for this is minimal, and can be done from home, from a desktop computer or laptop. The software we use is very user-friendly and if you have ever laid out pages to create a photo album online, the process is very similar. Please email the PCO at
pco@bfccps.org
if you are interested in helping out with this year’s yearbook.
Without parent volunteers, students will not have a yearbook to order in June as this is a PCO activity and relies on parents involvement to help make it happen.
Thanks!
The PCO presents
Miss Money and the Coins
for students in Kindergarten through Grade Four on January 7th in two assemblies, one at 9:20 am and one at 10:15 am.
Ms. Money & the Coins is nationally recognized educational, interactive, musical presentation that teaches elementary-aged students the concepts of saving, sharing and spending money. This unique show uses music, magic and interactive theater games to bring basic personal finance concepts to life on stage and leaves students and teachers cheering about saving money.

Now that winter weather has arrived, please be sure that your student(s) are dressed appropriately for the weather each day. We will continue to have outdoor physical education and recess whenever possible; students are also outside for car line pickup at the end of the day.
|
|
When the "feels like" temperature is under 25 recess will be indoors. On other days during the winter months, when the temperature is between 25 and 45 degrees we will be outside for recess and PE. On those days we require students to wear a 2nd layer sweatshirt or coat (hats and gloves are also strongly recommended). If students want to play in the snow, both snowboots and snow pants are required as well.
As a reminder, recess is 25 minutes long and physical education is 50 minutes long so please ensure your students come dressed appropriately for New England weather each day. S
tudents who are not prepared for cold weather may be referred to Dr. Levering the Assistant Head of School for follow up.
