For more information on our remarkable program, contact the Partnership Director here
(no business solicitation emails please).
The Partnership is staffed by former and actively homeschooling parents. We are traveling this road with you! We do not have an office on the school campus, but we do have a mailbox in the Central Office where you may drop off paperwork.
What are the Partnership office hours?
Partnership staff do not have an office on campus, but have an inbox at the Central Office (STEM/Central building) on campus. Our hours are the same as Central Office, M-F, 8-4:30, following the school calendar. We are best reached via email and we do our best to return messages in a timely manner.
The Central Office is staffed and open from approx. 8:00 until 4:30 M-F.
The BS public school staff is very friendly, but may not always know the daily details of Partnership classes and activities, therefore you must contact us with your questions and concerns.
