Welcome back!
After-School Study Hall
We are pleased to announce that Alicia Rossie will be proctoring our after-school study hall for Grades 4-9 in the library. This study hall is available Mondays – Fridays from 3 – 5:30 p.m. Alicia has experience teaching students of a range of age levels and is very enthusiastic about supporting our students as they complete homework during this time. We have known Alicia for several years now, as she has worked with us in secondary school placement in her most recent role of Admissions Counselor at the College of Bard at Simon’s Rock. Families should contact BCD’s front office to pre-register their child for the study hall. Drop-ins are also welcome, but please notify the front office by 1p.m. that day. A fee of $8 per hour is charged for this service.
Pizza Fridays
You can still sign your student(s) up for Pizza Fridays, On these days, the ninth grade class delivers pizza and juice to students who order food. This year’s dates are September 16, October 28, November 18, December 9, January 13, February 17, April 20, and May 11. Please return this form and a check to Melissa Kruse by Tuesday, September 6. NOTE: Changes to Pizza Friday orders will be accepted for one week after the first Pizza Friday, which is September 16. After September 23, no changes may be made to orders.
Fall Enrichment
There are a few spots available in each of our Fall Enrichment classes. Please turn in your form as soon as possible.
Bus Laws
Please note that the same laws apply in the BCD driveway and parking lot – you may not pass a school bus when its stop sign is extended or its lights are flashing! Bus drivers are legally responsible for reporting offenders to the police – it is an automatic $250 fine and your insurance company will apply a surcharge.
