Celebrate 50 Years with BCCS!

 

BCCS opened its doors 50 years ago. In 1951, a group of parents met to pursue ways of providing their children with the type of education they felt was God’s requirement for them as parents.

In 1958, a building fund was established, and land was purchased. The construction process for a two-classroom structure began in February 1958. In the fall of 1958, the doors were opened to the first students, and one teacher was hired for grades 1 through 6. A building expansion in 1965 offered kindergarten for the first time. In 1977, a preschool class was offered. High enrollment in 1982-83 was the deciding factor in the addition of four classrooms and additional rest rooms. An all-purpose gymnasium was added in 1985.
