Dear BCS Families,
We hope this e-mail reaches you and your families with excitement as we prepare to begin the 2022-2023 school year at BCS! For new BCS families and those returning, we embrace you as members of our Cobra family as we continue a tradition of excellence, innovation, and collaboration here at BCS. Our mission is to inspire students to become global community leaders with a passion for learning, innovating, inquiry, and design. We encourage you to review BCS' Vision, Mission, Values, and Beliefs.
Last year, our entire community- students, staff, parents, and community members- worked together to create our new touchstone, which reflects the core values that we as a community have decided to uphold. We are proud to have created a touchstone with input from all members of community, designed and voted by our students themselves. The touchstone highlights the following core values: Respect, Integrity, Kindness, Empathy, and Responsibility (RIKER, which has been voted as the name for BCS' new therapy dog who is still in training this year- more information about this forthcoming!)
As we continue to prepare for an exciting new school year, Assistant Principal, Mr. Jason Hill, and I would like to welcome some new faces to BCS. Joining us from Groves High School will be Mrs. Shannon Torres (7/8 Spanish) and Mrs. Terri Grantling (BCS Office Assistant). Any additional changes in staffing will be communicated if/as they arise. We also want to extend a warm welcome to our new wonderful PTA Co-Chairs, Mrs. Wendy McDowall and Mrs. Shelley Olsen. You will find more information about the PTA and ways you can consider volunteering at BCS. We TRULY rely and depend on the support of our incredible parent volunteers, and we highly encourage your participation to ensure we can continue offering our students the best educational experiences.
Below you will find all information related to returning to school this fall, including our Back-to-School days scheduled for August 18 or August 23. We look forward to seeing you at our Back-to-School Days. Should you have questions or need to find the correct BCS contact to answer your question, please reference our linked resource: BCS_Connect_With_Us.
Yours in BCS Solidarity,
Dr. Omar Hakim
BCS Principal
