Dear Students, Parents, Teachers & Friends of Education,
 

BAM!


End of Year Celebration: Powerful message from Principal Kafele to all BCSS Employees

As BCSS staff entered the gym at WBHS for the end of year celebration each person received a mirror. Principal Kafele challenged all to look into the mirror and ask us some very important questions, "Who are you? What are you about? What is your most recent evidence? Make time to look in the mirror and reflect every day!" He went on to tell the staff, as an administrator, educator, or support person, you are the number one determinant of our students' success or failure. What students see, hear, feel and experience in our classrooms will determine their academic success. Students should experience the "BAM!" affect as they cross the threshold of our classrooms - it must be a priority to ensure a safe and welcoming climate and culture. We must dare our students to envision themselves 10, 20, 30 years from now achieving their dreams.
