Spotlight on BCCI Community

This past Thursday a group of BCCI dads and other BCCI men represented BCCI in a football tournament. We work hard to develop BCCI community at school. And we are so happy when BCCI community spreads beyond our school. Take a look at the photos below!

Map Testing

• Beginning of May: Students in Grades 2–12 will complete the second round of NWEA MAP testing
• The assessments will cover English reading, English language, and mathematics 
• The tests will take place over several class periods
• Taking the MAP tests allows us to measure student growth in English and Math over time.  

Upcoming Art & Music Fest

Next week: “Art battle” competition during the scheduled chapel time.

Friday, May 15: Parents invited to BCCI

• Morning and early afternoon: Art Gallery Walk in the BCCI cafeteria
• Mid afternoon (specific time TBD): Music Fest and Art Auction in the PPM2 auditorium

Primary Field Trips

Our Chapel Theme for May is Humility

Make sure that when you come to BCCI you take a moment to look at our sculpture across the street.  The fact of Jesus Christ washing a disciple’s feet demonstrates humility. Jesus is a servant leader. We want to train students to be servant leaders in our world.

Blessings,

Pastor Mac
