Greetings Bearcat Families,
Welcome to our Battle Creek Central Family Newsletter! We will use this tool to share news, announcements, and upcoming events to support our commitment to clear, consistent communication.
This week, we have a few key announcements to share. We've shared these announcements through the weekly all-call and ask for your partnership in communicating with students at home.
💙 💛 Welcome to the best school year yet! We are excited to work with Every Student, Every Dream, Every Day.
🍳 Class starts promptly at 7:30. Doors open at 6:50, and breakfast is served from 7:00 to 7:45.
📱 Cell phones must be put away from 7:30 to 2:40 every day. We appreciate your cooperation. This is now a state law.
🌠 We have three counselors at BCC: Tiffani Hollins, HHS Academy Counselor. Samantha Werner, BEIT Counselor, and DeAnna Thompson, Freshman Academy Principal.
🍔There is no school on Friday, September 4 and Monday, September 7 in recognition of Labor Day.
💻September 18 is a half-day of school as staff has professional development in the afternoon.

📲 Please make sure the Welcome Center has your current email address, mailing address, and phone numbers. We regularly send out information about grades, absences, and upcoming events, and we want to ensure you have accurate information every week.
🔮 We hope all students will consider joining an after-school club or a sport. Some of our after-school clubs are: Bearcat News, Tabletop Gaming, Voices of Diversity, Magic Club, Robotics, National Honor Society, Science Olympiad, Red Cross Club, Gender Sexuality Alliance, Maker's Club, Robotics Club, and Hispanic Heritage Alliance.
- ✋Attendance: Good school attendance is the first determinant of high school graduation. Students who miss 10% or more of school throughout the year miss out on significant class time and can quickly fall off track for graduation. Please help us support your children's success by ensuring they are in school on time daily.
