Each class does at least one community outreach activity as a missions project, and all classes go on short field trips with some classes having special trips, such as a 4th grade trip to Sacramento, a 6th grade Science Camp, and an 8th grade study tour of the Washington D.C. area. Upper School students have Chapel one morning a week, and a comprehensive after-school sports program is available as well. Parents are expected to participate in many ways such as classroom helpers, field trip drivers and chaperones, work day helpers, speakers in class or Chapel, and helping with class parties or fundraisers. We maintain frequent communication between school and parents with notes, phone calls, conferences, and a weekly publication called the SBCS Bulletin Board. Our parents serve on the School Board and its committees.
Students bring their own lunches to school each day.
Upper Schoolers have the Student Store available at lunch time. There will be no refunds if your child does not take the milk purchased. You may make a deposit of a lesser amount. D.C. The parents from this class have the opportunity to participate in serving a hot lunch to any student who has purchased one in advance for that week. We maintain a fine 15,000 volume library for use by our students.
