A Flourishing Community

What does learning look like at BCCS? Check out these snapshots of learning that highlight a variety of great things across our classrooms!

Podcasting and Voice 

In informational writing, eighth-grade students practiced researching, synthesizing information, and more, with their learning centered on the topic of sustainability. Recognizing the importance of stewarding both creation and resources in our own lives, students chose a topic they felt passionate about (sports, fishing, hunting, clothing, etc.) and developed a podcast that explained an issue and how to engage in these activities in a more sustainable way. Working with a partner, students researched their chosen topics, learned the basics of podcasting, recorded a session, and edited it to produce high-quality work. Writing and researching are essential skills, and finding creative ways to share that information is an important long-term skill.

Physical Education 

Physical Education (PE) at BCCS takes place twice a week and provides students with opportunities to be active, develop new skills, and play in community together. It is also a space where we encourage students to develop lifelong habits.

For example, our sixth-grade students have been working hard not only to learn and play disc golf, but also to design a small course for both the school and the community. Through this experience, students are learning about disc golf along with practicing collaboration and teamwork, while contributing something meaningful and lasting to their school.

Once completed, the course will offer opportunities for both BCCS students and the community to be physically active in a fun and engaging way. The project encourages others to step outside, enjoy fresh air, and appreciate God’s creation in the beautiful natural surroundings of our campus.

This type of learning reflects a strong commitment to fostering creativity, collaboration, and stewardship, while promoting healthy lifestyles and meaningful community connections through PE!
