By popular vote, we are heading to Marine World in Vallejo, Friday, May 16, 2008.  The cost will be $30 per teen (this will cover the cost of entry and transportation).  Each student will be on their own for meals at the park.  We will leave the school at 9:30 a.m. and will return between 6 and 7 p.m.  We will need drivers for this trip, so if any of you parents can help out I would greatly appreciate it.  Please let me know asap if you can help out by driving.  Also, if you would like to come along just for the fun of it feel welcome to do so.  For more information please contact the school office, or drop by the class and see me.

April is always a busy month for us at BBCA. Achievement tests are coming up next week, April 15-17, as well as five volleyball games to be played this month. Then, we cannot forget the Fine Arts competitions, April 24th and 25th.  This is always an exciting time for our older students. This year the students are very excited about the culinary and strategy game competitions. Also, with the start of our new music program, students are encouraged about competing in music. Please help me encourage the students by taking an active interest in the areas that they wish to compete. The competitions will be open to any parent that would like to attend. I will send a schedule home in the next few days, so you will know exactly when your student will compete in the different categories.
