2025 Christmas Pageant
Our students have been hard at work, dedicating time every day to prepare for this special event. They are thrilled to showcase their efforts and bring to life the beautiful story of the birth of Jesus through their performances.
Join us on Tuesday, December 17th, at 6:30 PM for a heartwarming evening filled with joy, faith, and celebration. Bring your friends and family and be a part of a BIA Christmas—a night you won’t want to miss! 🎄✨
Parent Night Out
What a night! Our Christmas Parent Night Out was a huge success, filled with fun and holiday cheer. The kids got creative with arts and crafts, enjoyed delicious pizza and pasta from local favorite JB Alberto’s, and rocked their Christmas pajamas all evening long. Laughter and excitement filled the air as the kids enjoyed every moment of this festive evening.
We hope you, the parents, enjoyed your well-deserved night off as much as the kids enjoyed their night of fun! Thank you for trusting us to create these special memories with your little ones. 🎄✨

We are excited to continue our cherished tradition of a holiday pancake breakfast, cooked by none other than our very own Chef Joe-R-D (Mr. Dembowski)! This year, we’re adding a special twist—you’re invited to join us! Parents, guardians, and grandparents are welcome to enjoy this festive feast with our students on Wednesday, December 20th.
