November is Family Month at BISCAYNE! This month we celebrate and bring awareness to the importance of family involvement and partnership in the success of our student leaders.

This month we will host Welcome Parades-- families and community mentors will have an opportunity to greet, cheer, and high five students. We want our student leaders to see and feel the support and positive energy as they begin their school day!

We will also host 2 Family Nights!

1. Bring your family to our outdoor Movie Night on the big screen! This event will be held on campus. Come enjoy friends, family, food, and fun... and you can even dress up for added fun (see flyer below)
2. Make PIZZA your dinner for the night! Bring your family to Pizza Night at BLAZE (River City shopping plaza) for dinner with Biscayne family and friends. Proceeds from your purchase this night only will be donated back to our school!

We hope to see you and your family OUT this month !

Happy fall! 🌰 🍂
