Religious School starts Sunday, September 10, 2023 at 9:30 am
Join us for a very special morning as we welcome back our Pre-K through 7th grade students and their parents.
Dear Religious School Parents:
Please remain in the building after drop off. There will be a special meeting for parents to review:
Enhanced building security measures.
Updated policies and procedures, school calendar
Learn about new technology initiatives
Parents will be able to enjoy a coffee, treat and a chance to schmooze before the start of the meeting in the Chaveyron.
Following the meeting enjoy the special opening-day concert with our guest performers.
Note to all families: as part of the new security procedures we ask that you please show your BTC key tag to the security at the door. Additionally, we will be providing our students with Building ID and lanyards that we ask them to wear every week to school.
