Good evening! The following are the announcements for the week of January 27th.
Lottery applications are OPEN for the 2025/2026 school year! We encourage families to apply for all grade levels (6-12), as slots may open before the start of the new school year. Currently enrolled students do NOT need to complete an application as their enrollment rolls from year to year. Although siblings of currently enrolled students are given enrollment priority, an application MUST be completed. From the homepage at www.beargrasscharter.org, click Lottery Enrollment on the main menu and follow the appropriate link to the Lotterease website.
Families who do not have internet or computer access will be provided the opportunity to complete the online application at Bear Grass Charter School during regular school hours for the duration of the application period. Contact the school to schedule an appointment.
Report cards were sent home with students on Friday. Parents and guardians should sign the report card cover and send it back to school with their student. Please reach out to your student’s teacher if you have any questions.
