COMMUNICATING WITH BACPS

Baystate Academy Charter Public School prides itself in welcoming parent participation and in being responsive to parents’ questions and concerns. Our primary concern is for the well-being and education of our students, and we are committed to open, honest communication with parents.

While the BACPS staff communicates often to keep parents informed of school events and procedures, we appreciate that families will have needs for information specific to their students. Your child’s teacher is the most appropriate person to speak with regarding a question about his or her school progress, classroom behavior, and/or educational program.*

If you are unsure who to contact, please use the “Contact Us” tab in the main menu and the appropriate person will get back to you.

*Every effort will be made to respond to your requests in a timely manner, generally within two (2) business days.
