Every Friday, our students participate in Interest groups. Some students stick with the same one throughout their time here and others switch every semester. Mr. Snyder has been hosting the Dungeons and Dragons group for awhile now, but it is all student led. #BCSchools





THERE ARE ONLY 10 YEARBOOKS LEFT!!! 📔🥳The yearbook interest group has worked extremely hard on their Spotify Wrapped themed yearbook, and you won't want to be left out when they arrive. The remaining yearbooks can be purchased online with a credit card at jostensyearbook.com or with cash in the front office. Don't miss the chance to buy this special keepsake! #BCEC #BCCI #BCMC #Buncombecountyschools #publicschoolproud
