Gift
Giving Information for B-CC Alumni
For those of you who have reunions coming up, please consider making
a class gift to the school. Even if you do not have a reunion coming
up, please consider making a contribution. Donations can be made through
the B-CC High School Educational
Foundation and are tax deductible. All donors will be recognized
in the Foundation’s
Annual Report. In addition, the Foundation has a plaque in the school’s
entrance hall honoring its generous supporters for gifts of $1,000 to
$5,000 and $5,000 and over. The gift can be designated for particular
programs or categories, or can be unrestricted. Here are some examples
of how your gift can be put to use:
- Professional Development for B-CC staff (The Ed Mullaney Professional
Development Fund)—The fund helps defray part of the costs of
participation in workshops, seminars, and training for the B-CC staff.
Such participation is crucial in their acquisition of new educational
tools and instructional techniques, and the benefits are multiplied
as these teachers share their skills and knowledge with their colleagues.
The costs for workshops averaged $850 per teacher last year.
- Academic Program and Student Support—B-CC’s academic
program puts B-CC on par with the finest public and private high schools
in the area. It is a goal of the Foundation to assure that B-CC students
continue to be challenged to the highest levels of achievement and
receive the support they need to reach their potential. In a survey
of students leaders done at the start of the 2004-2005 school year,
the number one priority of the students is having extra time and more
focused academic support for all students at all levels, from those
struggling to succeed in grade-level courses to those who are taking
advanced courses but need extra encouragement and support to succeed.
- TAP (Time for Academic Progress), an after-school academic support
program for all students, has been extended from Math to English,
Science, and Social Studies. The Foundation has pledged to raise
the $60,000 needed for this and other academic support programs for
the school year.
- A gift of $9,000 will fully fund participation for 30 students,
and a gift of $300 will fund one student’s participation, in
the 9th Grade Summer Academy. The Academy provides additional academic
and skills training for incoming 9th graders at risk of not succeeding
at B-CC without the transitional support.
- Opening Doors to College—Another goal of the Foundation is
to help all B-CC students, regardless of background and family resources,
to be aware of the post-high school opportunities available to them
and what is required of them to take advantage of those opportunities.
- A gift of $900 will provide a full year’s funding for one
student at CollegeTracks, a program designed to help students with
their college search and application process during the school year,
particularly those students whose parents have not attended college
and who may be unfamiliar with the college and financial aid application
processes.
- Undesignated—This would allow the Foundation to put the funds
in the program(s) most in need.
