Dear Awesome BCS Students,
Every Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday you can get homework help from 6:30-7:30 PM by logging on to the link below. Trust me this will be much better than trying to copy off of your neighbor’s paper without the teacher seeing you.

Dear Parents/Guardians,
After consulting with William Kennedy, Director of Emergency Services in Schuyler County, we are going to continue on with afterschool activities. All practices in Dundee will be from 4:15-5:15 PM, so as to allow students to return back to the District before tonight's heavier snowfall is expected to occur. Please know there is a sports bus that runs from Bradford to Dundee, and back, if you have any apprehension about your child driving. The boys varsity practice in Bradford at 6:45 PM may be shorted depending on weather conditions. The heavier snowfall in our region is not expected to start until well after all practices have ended and student-athletes have returned home for the evening.
Thank you.

Dear BCS Parents and Student Athletes,
We are very happy to announce that beginning on February 1, 2021 the Winter sports season is set to begin. This will be a limited season in that all activates, including Sectionals, must be concluded by March 14, 2021.
Due to the shortened length in the season fewer games will be played. Schedule are being created as I type this message. It has also been determined by all counties we would participate in, Steuben, Schuyler and Yates, that a mask must be worn at all times during competition and spectators will not be allowed to attend in-person.
We realize some of this information may come as a disappointment, but I ask that everyone try to see the positives in this allowance of athletics and not dwell on what we wish was different. At the end of the day our students have been given an opportunity to pursue an interest of theirs and for this I am grateful.
In lieu of spectators not being able to attend games in-person, we do plan to stream live game action for all contests. More information about where and how to access these livestreams will be forthcoming.
Thank you for your continues support of our students and District. Go Braves!

Dear BCS Parents/Guardians,
If your student is out on quarantine you MUST forward their release to our school nurse, Mrs. Miller, before they can return to school. Her email address is kmiller@bradfordcsd.org. You can also have the testing site/medical provider fax a copy of your release to (607) 583-2305. Mrs Miller will respond to let you know they are cleared to return. If you do not hear from her, your student should remain home tomorrow until their clearance is confirmed.
Thank you!

Please remember there is no school on Monday, January 18th due to Martin Luther King Jr. Day. Thank you.
Tomorrow, Wednesday, January 13th has been rescheduled to be a full-day of school. Thank you.
Dear BCS Community,
I have several updates to share today.
This coming Wednesday, January 13th will again be a full-day of school for students. We had thought our staff was going to be able to be vaccinated on this day, however, these plans with the Schuyler County Public Health Agency fell through due to scheduling and distribution issues. We are working towards scheduling another day for BCS staff to get vaccinated in the not too distant future. If and when this can be scheduled we will do our best to give families and students as much notice as possible.
Today we found out we had a school employee and a student test positive for COVID-19. Thankfully the numbers of people effected by this is minimal. We have contacted all impacted families.
I know these messages can be disappointing at times, but we continue to take all of the precautions we can to keeps students and staff safe and our doors open. Thank you for your support and understanding.

Dear Pre-K and 1st Grade Parents,
Due to a close contact with an employee who has tested positive for COVID-19 we will have to quarantine the morning PreK class and Ms. Doppel’s 1st grade section. We are calling parents and leaving messages if unable to speak directly.
Due to a lack of teacher availability we will not be able to run our afternoon PreK classroom. These students are not a close contact and due not need to quarantine.
I apologize for this late notice but we did not receive word of this positive result until this evening. We will share more information with all impacted students/families on Monday.
