This Week at BCHMCPS




Happy December! This is a busy but shorter month so is packed with school and family events. We kick off this week with the teacher conferences on Tuesday and Thursday (December 4 & 6). Please remember that on both of these days there will be a 12:00 dismissal and NO afterschool daycare.
Morning drop off and afternoon pick up continue to go well and the BCHMCPS staff is so grateful to all families who follow the protocols set up to ensure student safety and an efficient drop off and pick up. A reminder that ALL cars should have a placard with the family name and student grades displayed in the front window. These placards are made by the school and, for the safety and security of students, cannot be made by others outside the school. If you need new or more signs for your car, or anyone else authorized to pick up your child/ren, we will have new signs available at teacher conferences. If you let us know ahead of time, we will have them ready for you. Thank you!


BCHMCPS has been so fortunate to have such wonderful administrative assistants in our school. Ms. Erica Aceto has been here at BCHMCPS for almost six years. Ms. Aceto has recently accepted a position at Barnstable High School starting December 12th. I am so sad to see her go but happy that she is moving into a position that will continue to allow her to use all the amazing skills that she brings to her job every day.
Please join us on Friday December 7th from 8:45-9:30 am in the cafeteria for coffee and pastry and to wish Ms. Aceto well.



Reminder- Book Fair all this week. Thank you PTO!!

BCHMCPS is sponsoring a Canned Food Drive to benefit Independence House. Boxes are available at school to drop off your donation. Thank you in advance.

December 12th- As a reminder- On December 12th, we are hosting the family event "Screens Off/Minds On". This is a fun night for the whole family! Pizza will be served, so you don't even need to think about dinner. If you have not returned your pizza order form, please do so as soon as possible. Students are encouraged to come in pajamas if they would like and they will have stories read to them as parents/guardians attend the "Screens Off/Minds On" workshop. The Book Fair will be open for the evening as well. Reservations are needed so we can know how much pizza to order. We hope to see you there!
