Students are offered meals to take home to help with the days they are not in school.
The 5 days’ worth of food consist of individual items and bulk items such as a loaf of bread, lunch meat, and milk. Please advise us if special meal accommodations are required for allergens or other special dietary needs. Meals are available for parents to pick up on Friday’s between 12:00-1:00 in the north building. Students may pick up after school in the cafeteria on Tuesday and Fridays. Parents and students may sign up for these meals by emailing Mrs. Brunelle at tbrunelle@maplerun.org or by calling her at 527-6404. This will put you on a weekly list. If you are unable to pick it up, please call to suspend your order for that week. If other pick-up arrangements need to be discussed, please call her. We understand that people sometimes forget to sign up or situations change so we will have some extras made up just in the grab and go cooler in the cafeteria.

Northwest Access TV has been supportive of our BFA Families by live streaming our Home JV & Varsity Basketball Games as well as our Varsity Hockey Games this winter because of the Vermont COVID ban on spectators at games. When they broadcast basketball, the stream will be the same for JV & Varsity so anyone watching will be able to keep watching the same video. SITE: https://www.facebook.com/nwatv

Junior Jam is coming back!
This is not just for Juniors! This event is one of the oldest traditions at BFA and it’s a lot of fun!
Each class will compete against each other in a fun and creative presentation of a short play. Classes have already chosen a director. The director chooses the play, and you get to be a part of the production! Anyone can be involved, regardless of your experience. Come and support your class!
If you’ve ever wondered what it would be like to be involved in a play but haven’t had the time, this is your chance! There will be an informational meeting at the end of the month. Contact Susan Palmer at spalmer@maplerun.org if you are interested.
