🐝 Schools of Choice is officially OPEN at Bath Community Schools.
If you've been wondering whether there's a school where your child is known, not just enrolled, this is your window.
Here's what families find at Bath:
🔬 A SmartLab for every student. Every single Bath student, from kindergarten through senior year, has access to a state-of-the-art STEM lab. We're the only district in the greater Lansing area that can say that.
🏆 A top-tier high school. Bath High School ranks #11 out of 51 public high schools in the greater Lansing area, according to U.S. News & World Report.
🤝 A community small enough to notice your kid. Our teachers know families by name. Our principals know students by name. That's not a slogan, it's what happens when you attend a school this size.
📅 Applications: July 28 to August 12 at 3:00 PM

Cyber Camp Opportunity for High School Students at Lansing Community College
When our roofing projects came in under budget, it created a real opportunity: roughly $4.7 million that could be redirected toward other needs across our buildings. But a decision like that shouldn't be made behind closed doors. It should reflect what our community values.
That's why Bath Community Schools asked for your input. Nearly 500 community members responded to our survey on how to prioritize the remaining scope, and the results are in.
This short video walks through what the survey told us about the priorities our community wants to see. Thank you to everyone who took the time to weigh in. Your voice is shaping these decisions.
Take a look, and reach out with any questions.

The top runners for mileage club celebrated with a trip to Launch Trampoline Park. Students had pizza for lunch before returning back to the elementary school. Thank you Mr. Vanderberg for organizing this event and another great season of mileage club.
Future-ready learning isn't a buzzword at BCS , it's built into our buildings.
Bath Middle School's SmartLab is already open and running, and we're bringing that same hands-on, innovative learning environment to Bath Elementary and Bath High School over the summer. By August, every BCS school will have a SmartLab where students tackle real problems, build real skills, and develop the kind of thinking employers and colleges are looking for.
Add in our US News & World Report recognition and our consistent standing among the top schools in the Lansing area , and Bath is a place where students thrive academically AND as whole people.
One week left to apply for School of Choice.
