Highlights from 7/8th Graders – led by Ms. Hong-Ling Gao:

After exploring the chapter on Greenhill Farm, Ms. Gao inspires her 7/8 th grade students to create their own farm tour maps.

   Campus Patrol Duty List for 2024-2025
   BVCS is a non-profit organization dedicated to keeping tuition affordable. To support this goal, each household is required to contribute to safety duties by having one parent or guardian on duty. For security reasons, we cannot post all the names publicly. However, below is the general schedule based on last names.
   Duty hours are from 6:45 pm to 8:50 pm. Should you have questions about the schedule or want to know the specific date of your campus patrol duty, please send your inquiry to bayvalleychineseschool@yahoo.com. Each week, a yard duty lead will send a reminder email to the assigned parents.
