High Impact Professional Development for Educators
Building the capacity of teachers to deliver quality instruction will continue throughout the school year with targeted professional development experiences.
Engaging Academic Program
The educational program will be designed to inspire and motivate learning, engage teachers and scholars in new levels of focus and effort, and create a place where scholars take ownership of their own learning.
Through a thematic approach to learning, scholars will learn to work collaboratively and develop their problem solving and thinking skills while achieving academic excellence.
Integrated Studies Connecting together
reading, writing, science, social studies, and, where appropriate, math and specials under thematic units will motivate BCCS-B to learn and want to learn.
Data Driven Instructions
BCCS-B will create and maintain a school culture where data analysis is viewed as an essential piece of the teaching and learning process.
Focus on Character Development and Problem Solving Skills
BCCS-B will adhere to high expectations for scholar conduct and will teach and reinforce strategies to increase scholar motivation, focus, cooperation, and collaboration.
A curriculum for character development surrounding our core values; citizenship, integrity, scholarship, and perseverance will be used to grow and develop our scholars’ social and behavioral skills.
Scholars will be engaged in tasks and activities that would allow them to problem solve whether or not actions are appropriate or inappropriate to different situations.
Parent and Community Partnerships
BCCS-B will connect parents and caregivers with their scholar’s education by means of frequent calls home, progress reports, a school newsletter and website.
There will also be school-wide events to encourage relationship building with families.
Scholars and families will benefit from our strong school partnerships with family service agencies and community organizations that aid with challenging or on-going problematic scholar behaviors.
More time on task In keeping with the
mission of BCCS-B, a longer school day and school year will help scholars achieve mastery of concepts in an academically rigorous curriculum.
