The new school year is about to begin, which means it’s time for Promotion Sunday! Promotion Sunday is the day we move students up to their new grade, which will take place on Sunday, August 31.

Pre-K kids who are starting kindergarten will move to the kindergarten room, kindergartners will move to the first-grade room, and so on, all the way through to high school students.

Students entering sixth grade will now be part of BAC Students, and those entering 11th grade will be part of BAC NextGen. See more about those schedules below!

What You Need to Do

On August 31, you don’t need to do anything for your kids to move up a grade. For elementary-aged kids (K-5th grade), please check that your child’s tag reflects their new grade once you check them in. If there is an error, please notify our volunteers. Our volunteers will also be happy to help you find your child’s new classroom if you need assistance. We’re looking forward to a great school year!

What about Nursery and PreK?

Kids ages birth to 4+ who are not starting kindergarten in the fall are separated by age. They will move to their next classroom by birthdate, and not by school year. They will be unaffected by Promotion Sunday.
