Dear BCCA Families:
As we begin the second week of November, I want to share a few important reminders. There will be no school on Wednesday, November 11, in observance of Veterans Day, and our offices will be closed as well. We are deeply grateful for the veterans and service members within our Eagle family. I invite you to take a moment with your scholar this week to talk about what it means to serve others. Service is one of our RAISE values, and our veterans show us what that value looks like at its fullest.
This month our scholars continue their study of temperance, the virtue of self control and of choosing what is good in the right measure. As we move toward Thanksgiving, temperance and gratitude go hand in hand. Ask your scholar how they practiced temperance at school, whether it was waiting patiently, completing work with care, or choosing kind words in a hard moment.
Finally, I ask for your help in protecting every day of learning as we enter the holiday season. The days before and after Thanksgiving break are full instructional days, and each one matters for your scholar. Mid-terms arrive in December, and steady attendance now is the best preparation for them. If your scholar must be absent, please notify the front office.
Thank you for your continued partnership. Enjoy the day of rest on Wednesday, and I look forward to a strong finish to the week.
With Love and Grace,
Ms. Franklin
