The balanced calendar was approved Oct. 10 by the School Board for 2012-2013 after a great deal of discussion and surveying of both staff and the community. The superintendent held three public meetings to discuss calendar options and answer questions. Over 500 BCSC staff responded to a survey with 84% in favor of the balanced calendar. The community survey had 1250 responses - 76% of which also favored the balanced calendar.
The results/comments of the community survey were posted on the front page of the BCSC website for several weeks.
