Don't forget to "go red" tomorrow! #MovingForward
Last month, when we asked the BES Kindergartners what they thought our Board Members did, they said things like, "It means you're bored", "They cut boards with saws", and "They help the schools". Friday, these Kindergartners saw the Board live in action! #MovingForward
Don't forget: School is in session tomorrow as a make up snow day from January! See you tomorrow, students! #MovingForward
POLICY UPDATE: Beginning Wednesday, February 23rd, BCPS will move to a masking optional policy. Please note: masks will still be required on buses and at the Area Technology Center due to federal mandates that remain in place.
