This school has really gone down this past year in the Middle School & High School Dept. A lot of parents pulled their children out this year and are now going to other private schools or public school. If you do plan on going here make sure you understand that this school charges you $10.00 for each detention and the demerits accumulate quickly as they double up. Also, the teachers do not inform the student that they received a demerit so you must be committed to check online to see the infraction. Make sure you note the dates of infraction for your records so that there are no misunderstandings and everyone is held accountable. There is one particular teacher that was moved up from Elementary grade to the High School Dept. that most parents were not pleased with. These concerns were presented to the principal at the beginning of the school year and I also raised concern over this. Although the principal is very nice, she did not correct the problems with this teacher who lost papers and had poor record keeping. I would recommend this school for Elementary children but I would look elsewhere for Middle & High School children if this problem has not been changed.
This is our 2nd year at BCA and our boys LOVE the school! It is a very small school with wonderful caring teachers. My 7th grader who has never enjoyed school before told me that he now enjoys going to school! Music to a parent's ears! Thank you BCA!!
Again, the new sports program has made the school even better. In addition to the fine arts taught, the academics are top. My child selected to go to this school, and we as parents are proud and pleased of this choice.
New extracurricular programs like football and volleyball make BCA even better this year (2008)! Teachers and administration really care about student success.
The school upholds Christian values. Wonderful arts program. They counsel students and parents. Individualized instruction.
Not worth the trouble the adminstration will give you if they don't agree with anything you do at your own house.
The school has wonderful fine arts programs that all students participate in. The classes are small and there is lots of individual attention from teachers.
