This Week!
I hope that all of you have had a restful and relaxing holiday weekend. While my family did not celebrate as we normally do, we did enjoy the time together. I hope that each of you was able to be with those you love and, even for a moment, forget about our current reality and the global pandemic.
As we end November, I would like to share a few important reminders:
- The MCPS Return to School Survey deadline is December 3. Details about the survey are linked below.
- ParentVue/StudentVue are important tools to help you monitor academic progress. Please contact your child's grade level administrator if you need assistance accessing either platform.
- B-CC has several support programs to help students who may be struggling including Time for Academic Progress (TAP), Peer Partner tutors, Honor Society tutors, and Baron Time. Please reach out to your child's teacher or counselor if you would like more information about any of these programs.
I hope all of you remain safe and well!
All my best,
Shelton Mooney, Ed.D.
Principal
