ACSI Music Festival


On Thursday, May 24, eleven middle school students attended the ACSI (Association of Christian Schools International) Music Festival at Gordon College in Wenham, Massachusetts. This competition is held yearly for students in Christian schools in the Northeast Region of ACSI. Thirteen schools in the New England area were represented. Students competed in the areas of vocal, small ensembles, instrumental, choirs, and bands. Students were given the opportunity to present musical selections before an audience and judges, and were scored and then presented rosettes according to ranking. Students were ranked Superior, Excellent, Very Good, Good, and Honorable Mention.

Students from Brockton Christian School earned a total of six superior rosettes:

Lauren Adams (5)

Superior in vocal solo

Jasmine Blanc, Nina Ciulla-Monteiro, Rebekah Lunsford and Jenay Israel (7) Superior in vocal small ensemble

Rebekah Lunsford (7)

Superior in vocal solo

Other students earned the following rankings:

Danielle Austin (6)

Excellent in vocal solo

Lynea Adams and Nikkia Watson (8) Excellent in vocal duet

Becca Willis (5)

Very Good in piano solo

Brianna Morrell and Emily Franceschi (8) Good in vocal duet

Students were given judging sheets to encourage continued excellence in music. The students were accompanied by Mrs. Sharon Lunsford, Music Director of Brockton Christian School, who also arranged the local competition and travel arrangements.


Enrollment at BCS


We have great plans for next year! A new writing series will be used throughout the building, and we will be remodeling some classrooms. Please pray for wisdom in our planning for next year. We still have openings in our full day K program (age 5 by October 1st), our PreK class (age 3 years, 6 months by September 1) as well as other grades.

If you have not re-enrolled for next year, please contact the school office. We cannot hold spaces without the enrollment form and deposit. The registration fee is $100.00 per student. Tuition payments are due on July 1 to Key Bank, who will be our tuition management company next year.

If you have a friend that may be interested in BCS for next year, we have brochures available in the school office that you could pass along to them. Please call and ask!

(As an added bonus – you receive a $250.00 credit for any family that enrolls a child in the school and is attending the following February. Any additional families are a $50.00 discount.)
