NOTE Director’s

As we continue to create the school of our dreams for this year, we are being pulled to look toward the future. As incredible as last year was and this year has been, we know that next year has even more magic in store. Our team continually strives for better. How do we do that? We do that by asking questions (our favorites are: “why are we doing it that way?” and “how does this benefit our students?”) and having difficult conversations.

Last year was hard work. Starting a new venture is stressful enough, but when it’s a whole school, well, that’s another level. My team, the amazing team here at BCS, our fantastic team of families, and our Fxbg community came alongside me and built our school by stopping in with an encouraging word, showing up to meetings with a positive attitude (even when it was hard), and by coming in to have difficult conversations, sometimes over and over again, until we got it right.

Building this community is not about being perfect from the beginning. In fact it’s not about being perfect at all. It’s about our constant dissatisfaction in the status quo. It’s about about examining (and re-examining) our choices, actions, and intentions. It’s about asking ourselves every single day: How can we do better?

We look forward to continuing to hold ourselves to the highest standards, to serving our community, and to lifting up our students and their families. Thank you for being a part of the dream team.
