About Our PTA
August 2025
Dear B-CC Families –
Welcome back to school – we are looking forward to a wonderful 2025-26 school year at BCC!
The PTSA Board is excited to engage with all of you in the coming months. As we enter a year of transition at the school with a new principal and a school boundary process moving forward, we know many of you will have lots of questions. We will be working closely with MCPS to make sure that the community is engaged in key processes and receives the information it needs.
The PTSA will also continue the work it has been doing to make BCC the best it can be for all of its students and teachers. This includes supporting our families in need through our B-CC Cares Program, supporting the college and career process through our College Advisory Committee, demonstrating appreciation to our teachers and staff, helping support student clubs, running an Open Gym during cold-weather lunch periods, providing community events and meetings, engaging in fundraising activities including organizing the Used Book Sale, providing volunteers for school events, and advocating for all B-CC families.
We encourage you to get involved in any way you can – whether it is volunteering, donating, coming to a meeting or event, or reaching out with questions and suggestions. Please make sure to join our free listserv for the latest news and information.
Look forward to a great school year,
The entire B-CC PTSA Executive Board
