Education Support Services
BCS has an outstanding Educational Support Services program where students receive personalized instruction in reading and mathematics with our ESS teacher or a well-qualified paraprofessional. In order to qualify for educational support services, a student must first be referred by their classroom teacher and evaluated by the ESS teacher.
