Grades 1 - 5:  Students must:

- meet state requirement of overall yearly average of 70 or above and the local requirement of an average of 70 or above in four core courses: reading, other language arts, mathematics, and science or social studies.

For BCS, we have a narrative report card.  Therefore the grade averages look a differently.  A child in 1st - 5th grade has not met promotion standards if he/she has two or more "1's" in two or more core courses of Language Arts, Mathematics, Science, and Social Studies.
