Welcome Class of 2028!
On behalf of Bergen County Academies Parent Partnership Organization (BCAPPO), we welcome you to the BCA community. BCAPPO is a group of parent volunteers comprised of the PPO Board, Class Parents, and parent groups of the seven academies. We work with BCA administrators, teachers, and staff to benefit and support our school, families, and students.
Since tuition is free at BCA, the PPO collects a Student Activity Fee (SAF) on behalf of the school so that we can continue our tradition of hosting and subsidizing fun and informative events and club activities that will make your student's experience at BCA truly unique. These events are either educational for students and families or aimed at building community and boosting morale over the course of a demanding school year.
We hope that you will contribute by making a one-time, tax-deductible payment of a $500 Student Activity Fee (SAF). Secure funding will allow us to plan ahead to ensure that we can run events for all four years of your student's time in high school and develop new ideas for improving student life at BCA.
