BK's Marching band is busy in the fall with their own competition season, as well as entertaining and rallying fans at Varsity Football games. Our Theatre Arts Department produces a play in late October or early November, our band, choir, and orchestra perform a winter concert, and students in Pastoral Arts lead our school community in worship at monthly All School Mass.

Freshmen, this is your chance to make your high school experience the best it can be by getting involved at BK. Make sure you read the announcements every day for information about fun opportunities to meet new people and try something new!
