The most important aspect of our after-school programs is our emphasis on sportsmanship, leadership, respect, and teamwork.
After-school with BBCS
BBCS offers our own comprehensive after-school program for K1-8th grade. This program is available to about 50 students per year and requests families make a $100 refundable deposit to join. Beginning in the second quarter of the academic year, this program offers a mix of academic support, targeted tutoring, social-emotional learning and enrichment on Mondays, Tuesdays, Thursdays, and Fridays from 3:45pm - 6pm.
