Tomorrow's
Technology in Classrooms Today - Inter-Active White
Boards |
|
"The
21st Century Classroom"
Our teachers have
requested funds for inter-active, electronic white boards.
By incorporating multi-media and hand-held student
response devices, teachers will be better able to focus
students' attention in the learning process. The
ability to create more engaging lessons increases
participation, improves learning, and reduces discipline
problems.
Please help us help your children by
making a monetary contribution today!

ECHO - Empowering
Children with Opportunities |
Last year marked the beginning
of an exciting program of the BCEF. Students who
cannot afford to rent or purchase a band instrument now
have the opportunity to participate in band through
ECHO. This program puts re-conditioned instruments
into the hands of students who otherwise would not
experience the joys and benefits of learning to play a
musical instrument.
Please
help us help us help all interested students experience
the joy of music today!
Yes,
I want to help!
