Boosterthon is our annual fundraiser that is the primary source of funds for BCES PTA! We ask that you consider supporting us to make this year extra special!
"Fuel the Voyage, Honor Our Traditions, and Help Every Buccaneer Thrive!"
As we begin another exciting school year, we want to thank you for your continued support and involvement. The strength of our school community shines through because of your generosity and participation.
Our PTA funds many things for our school that aren’t possible with our state and federal funding. This year, we are raising funds to help navigate rising costs while continuing to support the programs and people that make our school exceptional. Your contributions will help us:
· Provide funding for our Family Involvement—including our Science Night and a new Multicultural Fair.
· Continue Cultural Arts Programs that bring enriching experiences to our students.
· Support the 5th Grade Legacy Project.
· Sponsor Field Day, Chorus, Run Club, and other student activities.
· Honor our amazing Staff Crew through appreciation events and recognition.
· Provide Care & Compassion to families in need.
· And support much more that strengthens learning, creativity, and connection.
Every contribution—big or small—has a direct impact on our students and staff. With your help, we can ensure every child and teacher continues to feel supported and celebrated. With our BCES student enrollment down, every voice and every helping hand makes a bigger impact.
Thank you for being such an important part of our school family. We look forward to working together to make this year a great one!

PTA and Dr. Simon's have worked together to purchase a Book Vending Machine for our school! Starting next school year, students will be able to pick out a new book for their birthday from this vending machine!
Our Book Fair made over $18,000 in books, that we will be using to restock this machine and replace worn out books in our school library!
PTA does many things that people don't even know about! This year has been a busy one and we'd like to share some of the key things our PTA has accomplished.
