THANKS(FOR)GIVING
Thanks to our community’s generosity, we have transformed several student spaces for 2020-2021: technology upgrades in all classrooms, a complete overhaul of our kitchen and serving areas, washroom renovations, and new campus signage. As we continue to improve and upgrade our campus, we have identified three projects that will immediately enhance the overall student experience at BCS:
The ‘Bears’ Backyard’ will be an inviting outdoor gathering place for our community throughout all four seasons. Upgrades will involve new multi-purpose seating, ambient lighting, a central meeting place with stone firepit, and inviting pathways.
The ‘Bears’ Clinic’ will allow for timely upgrades to the Frank W. Ross Infirmary. Renovations will include a comfortable waiting room, adjustable beds and cabinetry, new medical storage, and the ‘comforts of home’ to best care for all members of our community.
The ‘Bears’ Den’ will welcome parents, alumni, students, and guests into a redesigned space within the athletic complex. This coffee shopinspired sitting area will feature bistro tables and chairs, device charging stations, and BCS athletic memorabilia.
A gift to Scholarships and Financial Assistance supports deserving students who otherwise could not benefit from a BCS education. The diversity of our student body contributes to our global community and is a fundamental part of the BCS experience.
Your gift will turn these projects into reality, so our community can benefit throughout this school year.
“After his first year at BCS, we have seen our son’s level of confidence and independence expand noticeably with significant improvements in crucial attributes such as self-motivation, discipline, and personal pride in his work that form the foundation for success later in life. We are proud to support BCS for all it has done and continues to do.” –James and Abby Soutar, current parents
“I give to BCS because I believe it has real value in today’s difficult, changing world, and because of what it gave me: a head start in education, encouragement to do so many things, and friendships that have lasted as long or longer than any others in my life.” –Doug Patriquin, BCS’64
“As a teacher and coach, I feel honoured to contribute to our ongoing development. I encourage everyone who is part of our community to give to the global BCS experience, as your means permit.” –Kirby Nadeau, BCS teacher, coach, and mentor
Bold and exciting transformation happens when our BCS community comes together.
