BCS is scheduled to staff the PPS Clothing Closet on Monday, October 24th, 9:30am-1:30pm at the Marshall (Benson HS) campus. Six volunteers are expected. Duties include helping to organize and stock clothing and helping families shop for clothing. This is a fun and rewarding volunteer experience that allows you to meet parents and students from other PPS schools. Sign up here.
Our next restaurant fundraiser is at Steeplejack Brewing
Here's another great opportunity to eat out to raise money for our school! Steeplejack Brewing will donate 10% of all food sales and 15% of all Steeplejack beer sales (including canned beer to go) starting at 3pm through close (10pm) on October 26th. Includes all dine in and take out.
Spookarama Needs YOU!
We need a robust volunteer corps to bring back this beloved tradition. Parents, grandparents and family friends can all volunteer, as long as they complete background checks through the PPS volunteer system. Sign up here or reach out to volunteer@beverlyclearyschool.
Spookarama includes carnival games, entertainment, prizes, an amazing haunted house... and more! Win a cake from Musical Scares, conquer a game at the carnival, and show off your costumes - your kids won’t want to miss it.
We’ll have The Blind Onion pizza for sale along with canned soft drinks. Salads, snacks, and treats will also be available for purchase.
This night of festive family fun is free to enter this year. For general questions, reach out to spookarama@beverlyclearyschool.org.
