Thank you soooooo much for supporting our Smart Card Sale! We are so close to the finish line, and we truly appreciate everything you've done to help make this fundraiser a success.
The sale officially ends on Friday, and we're hoping for one final push to help us reach our goal!
So far, we have sold 448 Smart Cards. Last year, our school sold 522 cards, which means we're only 74 cards away from matching last year's total. We know we can get there with your help!
Currently, 134 students have participated in the fundraiser. With 780 students at BCE, imagine what we could accomplish if just 100 more students joined in. We would easily surpass last year's total!
If you're anything like us, sometimes things get pushed to the last minute. 😊 If you have been meaning to order a Smart Card or share the fundraiser with family, friends, neighbors, or coworkers, now is the perfect time. Every card sold helps support our students and school programs.
We would also like to give a huge shout-out to our First Grade families, who have had the highest participation over the last two days. Great job!
Current Classroom Leaders
Kindergarten: Mrs. Pulk - 19 cards sold
1st Grade: Mrs. Peterson - 12 cards sold
2nd Grade: Mrs. Dowell - 30 cards sold
3rd Grade: Mrs. Hooper - 35 cards sold
4th Grade: Mrs. Alexander - 20 cards sold
5th Grade: Mrs. Brooks - 112 cards sold
Remember, it isn't over until it's over! Several classrooms are right behind the current leaders, so there is still plenty of time for rankings to change before Friday.
Thank you again for your support, generosity, and commitment to helping BCE reach its fundraising goals. Together, we can finish strong!
Let's make these last few days count!

Hello to all of our BCE families from the Counselor's Corner! We are so ecstatic to work alongside you and your students this year! We wanted to post this flyer with general information about the program now that we have become familiar with all of the students and are getting settled into the school year. We have our own Counselor's Corner tab in our school's website now, which houses information and resources about our program at Brown's Chapel in more depth. Please familiarize yourself with our page! Also, do not hesitate to reach out to us. We love to collaborate with families!

🚌⭐ Positive Bus Referral Spotlight! ⭐🚌
Today, we are proud to recognize Justin for receiving a positive bus referral!
Justin consistently exemplifies the BCE Creed by being kind and courteous every day. According to his bus driver, Justin demonstrates outstanding behavior on the bus, helps fellow students, engages in positive conversations, and often leads the line into the school in the mornings. His positive attitude and willingness to help others make him a wonderful role model for his peers.
Thank you, Justin, for representing Brown's Chapel so well and for showing what it means to be a Buck both on and off campus. We are proud of you!

As announced this summer, Rutherford County Schools has launched two new technology tools that will simplify how parents receive information and how they interact with their teachers and coaches to learn about their student’s academics, school announcements, and extra-curricular activities.
The first one is ParentVue by Synergy, and this will be used to see your student’s academic information, including report cards, daily grades, missing assignments, class schedules, etc. It is similar to Skyward that we used last year, but it is much more mobile and user friendly. The companion is called StudentVue and contain similar information for students.
The second app, and perhaps the most important, is MyRCS. Search for “Rutherford County Schools” in your app store, and download it for free.
The MyRCS app will be used by parents to receive messages and interact with your school, teachers, coaches, or band directors depending on the activities students are involved in. This is the sole communication platform we are using for this type of communication this year. It replaces platforms such as ClassDojo, Remind, Band or any others as parents have asked for a one-stop source for school information.
Once downloaded, you can select which schools your children attend to receive a live feed of news items from those schools. By adjusting your preferences, written messages families receive are translated automatically into your preferred language. You can also interact directly teachers and coaches using a featured called “Rooms,” which is a secure two-way communication tool.
Rooms launches Monday and Parents will receive an email or text message inviting them to join their teacher’s or coach’s Room. If you don’t get the email or text, that’s ok. Beginning Monday evening you can visit the Rooms section of the app, or use the login button on your school’s website.
For your login, all you need to enter is the cell phone number you have on file with your school or your email address. You should then receive an access code, and you will be logged in.
For a quick overview of how the platform works, watch this short video introduction. If you have questions or need assistance, visit our Rooms Resources webpage. Links to download the apps are available here.
Rutherford County Schools is excited to offer these communication tools for parents and students. We want to ensure everyone stays informed about their students and schools. Thanks again for your patience and cooperation as we settle in to a new school year.
Smart Cards are on sale now through Friday, September 11th! $25 each and gives hundreds of dollars in savings at over 100 local businesses. The money raised goes to Brown's Chapel technology, supplies, and celebrations for students and staff and there are great prizes this year for selling. Students will bring home an info packet. You may purchase by cash, check, or through School Cash Online.
We are so excited to announce our first Parent Volunteer Meeting of the year! Please join us on Thursday, August 20th from 4:30-5:30 in the BCE Library for a brief meeting where we will discuss ways to be involved and support BCE! We look forward to seeing you there!
We are excited for the 2026-2027 school year! Parent Meetings are a great time to learn the expectations for each grade level. Look for your student's grade level, time, and date.
