Good morning, Broncos!

Three things today in the second and final week of our Fall Fundraiser:

(1) Please join us tonight Tuesday October 23rd at Los Tios Restaurant. Eat with your friends. 20% goes back to BCS. The flier is on the PTO Calendar.

(2) The PTO is allowing partial Fall buy-out payments. (Partial boxes of chocolates are NOT allowed.) Buy-out levels are now $30, $60, $90 or $120 depending on how many boxes of chocolates you’ve sold. 2018_2019_FF_Buyout_Form.pdf

For example—if you have one student at the school and you sell one box of chocolates, your buy-out payment would be $30 to meet the minimum. If you have two or more students at the school and you sell one box of chocolates, your buy-out payment would be $90 to meet the minimum.

(3) Payments for boxes of chocolates are being accepted in cash or credit card.

Come and get your chocolates if you haven’t already.
