“Some classes fill quickly,” stated BBCS’s adminis-trator, Timothy Lee. “We will hold seats for all returning students until May 1st. After that time, seating will be as-signed on a first come, first served basis.”
It is BBCS’s goal that students grow academically, spiritually, socially, and physically. The school’s leadership believes the new tuition structure will help meet that goal.
The BBCS Ministry Team enjoyed a great opportunity this spring to bless and challenge Christians as they performed Bridge of Blood at several churches around Henry and Clayton counties. The readers’ theater-type play and vocal ensemble tell the story of Jim Elliot, Nate Saint, and three other missionaries who died in 1956 trying to take the Gos-pel to the Auca people.
“We chose this drama because it is a true story,” says Mrs. Chisholm, who teaches both Senior English and speech. “It is a story that challenges the listener to reflect on his own com-mitment to the Lord Jesus Christ. We have prayed that the Lord will also use

Ministry Team members (L-R) Josiah Henry, Bethany Nething, Jonathan Beck, Brianna Phillips, Sarah Snyder, Timothy Carroll, Elisa Clum, Graham Parker, Sarah McCullough, and Chris Chisholm portray the five couples contemplating their future just days before the men were brutally attacked.

this in the lives of the team members, that they, too, might answer the call to the mission field,” she continued.
The Ministry Team was created to give BBCS students an opportunity to develop their music and drama gifts through ministering in local churches as well as introduc-ing the school and its students to the community.
“The traveling ministry idea was a huge success,” stated school pastor Bob Rossiter. “We had several requests to come that we had to turn down due to a full schedule. Next year we may look into having two teams just to fill all the requests.” Bob Rossiter

Elementary classes enjoyed a trip to the Hampton Library recently fol-lowed by lunch at Chick-fil-A. Students were introduced to the vari-ous sections of the library as well as the services offered. Here stu-dents especially enjoy some of the reading games available on the computers.
Library Field Trip
Christ-centered resources for education, edification, and evangelismBBCS primarily uses BJU Press which is one of the largest suppliers of Christian-based curriculum. The proven ma-terials blend factual knowledge and critical thinking skills with biblical truth. The curriculum is organized, systematic, and sequential, which assures coverage of essential con-cepts students need to succeed after graduation.
Here’s a sample of the advantages our teachers find using BJU Press materials.
“I appreciate the integration of Biblical principles into every subject. The work that was done to incorporate the Bible into everyday math concepts shows the students that God and His Word should be seen in everything they do.”
— Andrew Broere, H.S. Math
“I like that the English curriculum alter-nates grammar and writing chapters. I also like that the grammar exercises are included in the writing chapters to keep it fresh on the students’ minds.”
— Julie Clum, 5th Grade
“I love the fact that students are given step-by-step instructions for writing everything from poetry to research pa-pers. These are skills they will need all the way through college and perhaps through life as some of them become authors in the future!”
— Mrs. Blanton, 3rd Grade
“I enjoyed the BJU curriculum because it teaches the why behind the principles and majors on thinking skills. It makes so much more sense than just straight memory drills.”
— Judy Bagwell, ReceptionistFormer Home School Mom

Jessica Knight graduated from BBCS in 2005 and then went on to graduate from Bob Jones University in 2009. Since that time, she has been teaching 5-6th grade at Condell Park Christian School in Sydney, Australia.
While living in Australia, she has enjoyed two amazing and unforgettable experiences: jetty-jumping in the ocean and climbing over the arch of Sydney Harbour Bridge.
Though Australians speak English, there are a few differences in the language. One day a student in her class asked if he could bring a torch to camp. She responded “absolutely not” only to find out a few days later that a torch is merely a flashlight.

State winners on the senior high level compete in the na-tional competition conducted each year by the American Association of Christian Schools (AACS). National compe-tition attracts approximately 3,000 students from the many AACS state associations. Over the years, GACS and BBCS have produced a number of national winners.
BBCS’s fine arts program consistently produces award-winning bands, choirs, pianists, academics, music and speech groups, as well as instrumental, piano, speech, and academic placements in national competitions.

It’s not too early to think about Vacation Stations, the activ-ity books that help students in K5 through grade 6 sharpen their academic skills and prepare for the next grade.
Students can build confidence with two pages a day of reviews in math, language, and reading. This is a fun way to help children do meaningful, grade-appropriate practice and prevent summer boredom.
Watch for an order form in the Weekly Newsletter or contact the school office.

When spring comes, BBCS gets excited about the baseball season! The team began the season with an Alumni game in which graduates tested their shelved skills against teen-agers who have been practicing for a week or two. Their skills weren’t too shelved as the alumni men won 13-10.
Though the season is early, the boys started the season with a win over Westwood Christian Academy from Thomas-ton and a loss to People from McDonough. Our boys made some excellent hits to the outfield during those games, and we look for them to continue to improve.
The girls’ first game was a good learning experience against cross-town rivals Peoples Baptist Academy. Our girls made quite a few good stops, and by the end of the game they were getting the bat on the ball. The practice paid off as they won their next few games, against Youth Christian from Powder Springs, Hope Christian from Wind-er, and Barnes Christian from Hartwell.
We look forward to the new lessons that will be learned and memories that will be made this season!

Kindergarteners Enjoy Dr. Seuss Day
K4 and K5 enjoyed many activities relating to Dr. Seuss’s March 2 birthday. They played “Pin the Egg on the Plate of Ham;” cooked and sampled green eggs and ham (well, some children sampled it); and most importantly read, read, read!
Farewell Space Shuttle Discovery
Students in 4th and 6th grades watch the historic final landing of the space shuttle Discovery.
Several classes watched science history in the making as the space shuttle Discovery came in for its final landing March 9.
Discovery ended its career as the world’s most flown spaceship after a flawless trip to the International Space Station. NASA’s oldest shuttle holds the all-time record with 39 missions, 148 million miles, 5,830 orbits of Earth, and 365 days spent in space, all achieved in under 27 years.
Generous donors made the technology used to observe this historic landing possible. Thank you!
