EXPLORERS CLUB/BEFORE & AFTER SCHOOL CARE
Explorers Club is a program at BSA designed to help parents who need care for their children on a regular basis beyond the hours of the school day. Explorers Club offers supervision and a variety of enrichment activities for children from our Early Learning Center through 8th grade. Families may choose part time care (1 to 3 days per week) or full time care (4 to 5 days per week). Daily activities include homework time, snack time, supervised free play, crafts, and organized games. For safety and staffing requirements, all enrollment intentions must be pre-scheduled.
For your convenience, we offer care for those times when families need just one day of before or after school care instead of an entire month. Courtesy Care must be scheduled and paid for 24 hours prior to the date care is needed.

CAMPUS SECURITY
Campus security and safety are a top priority at Bell Shoals Academy. We cannot stop evil from happening, but we are confident the following safety measures serve as the most effective deterrent we can provide to ensure our students are spending the day in a safe environment. BSA is increasing surveillance and utilizing the latest technology to protect our students.
FEES AND ACTIVITY FUND
The PTF/PVF Boards ask each family to donate to support all academy classes with student awards, lanyard pins, and special events. Donors receive a BSA magnet!

VOLUNTEER OPPORTUNITIES
VOLUNTEER OPPORTUNITIES
Bell Shoals Academy offers several opportunities for parents to be involved in their student's education. All campuses offer ways for parents to volunteer in their student's classroom. These volunteer opportunities are best arranged by speaking with your student's teacher. The Brandon campus also offers the Preschool Volunteer Fellowship and the Parent Teacher Fellowship groups.
