I truly love BCSA! if you go there it would be the best decicion you made!!!!

I have two children enrolled at this school and I am very impressed. I love the fact that I can volunteer at anytime and see what is happening at the school. From kindergarten they are bringing home little books to read. My daughter who is in first grade is learning time, money, measuring in cm and inches and they will begin to learn fractions. As far as bullying my son had a problem, I mentioned it to the teacher and they have kept an eye out for it. The problem I have seen is some parents refuse to see that their child has behavior that leads to bullying like pinching and pushing. If you have an open mind and you are always welcome to come see for yourself you can help your child and another with this issue. I volunteer at the playground sometimes to keep an eye on things. I

I love BCSA. My 2 kids have been going there for the past 2 years. Before BCSA, they when to public school. I had to drag them out of bed every morning. Now, they drag me out of bed! The student to teacher ratio is low. They really have a lot of fun at this school. What other school offers Drama, Dance, Suzuki, Spanish, Latin, Japanese and Art ? I can't wait till my other two kids get to go too!

My child came from 3 yrs. in rogers schools to BCSA. It is like night and day. My child LOVES school now. Teachers show a genuine interest in the students and in their teaching. Sadly, I didn't see much of that in public school.The schools test scores are higher than public school and i think that speaks to the commitment of the teachers. I only wish they had a 9-12 grade program. I would highly recommend BCSA to anyone!

My 11 year old and 9 year old both love BCSA! This is their 1st year there after being in regular public school. My children were not learning near what they needed to in the school they were in. All the old school seemed to want to do is teach toward the benchmark! Then send the children home with homework for the parents to teach what they couldn't during the day! BCSA teaches everything they should be learning in class! My boys do still have homework but they are practicing things they have already covered in the classroom! The teachers keep in close contact with the parents on the students progress and they genuinely care for the kids! We feel very blessed to be a part of this school! The difference has been night and day! Thank you to all of the teachers and staff!

My daughter was in another school before attending BCSA. It is like night and day. The teachers are there because they care. My daughter loves BCSA. She is above grade level in reading and math. Teachers take the time to listen to your concerns. My daughter will attend BCSA through the 8 grade. I am so thankful for the school.

I have attended BCSA since the very first year. Not only have I found that I actually DO enjoy school, I have found things I never knew i am good at. I would suggest this school to any parent who has a child in need. You can find kind people and great learning experiences every way you turn at BCSA.

I am not a parent at BCSA but a student and I have learned a lot from being at this school, the music and art are realy nice to have and bring a lot of fun into the school. By far my favorite teacher is Mrs. Cerna, who shows love for her students. She sets her standards two grades ahead of the grade she is teaching and the students who come from her class and go to other schools will most definately have the advantage. -Jonathan Bee, Lighting Tech. at BCSA

When we moved to rogers, we had our son in the Rogers public school, and felt they had way to many students in the class room. My wife and I talked to many parents and teachers from other schools and found a high respect and marks for the school and it's teachers. We were fortunate to get our son in BCSA, and we could not be happier. There will always be bad things said about good things, but the proof is in our son. He could not enjoy school anymore and he has improved his grades beyond our hopes. He has two of the best teachers we have ever met and every person we have met at the school has been wonderful. With small student count in each class, great teachers and leaders, to the wonderful parent involvement, we feel we could not have made a better choice.
