BRENTWOOD ACADEMY PARENTS ASSOCIATION

BAPA

Brentwood Academy Parent Association (BAPA) exists to partner with BA to intentionally help fulfill the mission and ministry of Brentwood Academy by investing in students, supporting faculty/staff, and building community.   

Upon enrolling students at BA, parents become members of the Brentwood Academy Parents Association (BAPA). Parents are encouraged to get involved in the life of the school. BAPA provides numerous volunteer opportunities throughout the year.  

Within BAPA, there is an advisory board that is composed of 21 parent volunteer members who accept a three-year term to oversee assigned BAPA activities.   

BAPA also assigns two Grade Level Parents (GLP’s) for 6th-11th grade and 6 GLP’s for 12th grade to help oversee the grade level activities and coordinate volunteers.   

Below are some of the contributions of BAPA throughout the year:  

  • Investing in students by sponsoring events including school spirit activities, activity period “BAPA Breaks,” homecoming dinners and grade-level trips.  
  • Supporting faculty/staff through hosting teacher treats, teacher breakfasts, faculty/staff appreciation week and the Thanksgiving/Easter bakery.  
  • Building community through family programs including parent socials, tailgates, Mom's Bible Studies, BA Dads and community outreach events like Christmas in Brentwood. 

 

MEET THE BOARD MEET THE GLPS


 *Starting with the 2023-24 school year, BAPA has committed to gift every high school student a leather ESV Bible that will be received when enrolled in a Bible class. All high school students will receive a Bible by their senior year if not previously enrolled in a Bible class. 

A LETTER FROM THE BAPA PRESIDENT

"We are blessed at BA to have an amazing community of parents who desire to partner with the mission and vision of Brentwood Academy. As the parent of a current BA middle schooler and high schooler, I am honored to serve as the president of the BAPA board for the 2023-24 school year.

I am excited for all the ways God will lead us in the upcoming school year and thankful for the wonderful support of the BA parent community. My prayer is that as parents we will always seek to be the hands and feet of Jesus, lifting up and supporting our students, faculty/staff and always seeking to build up our community."

BA DADS

The Brentwood Academy Parents Association provides several opportunities throughout the year for dads to connect with each other for fellowship, fun, and service.

COFFEE STOP

Dads, join us at the Coffee Stop any or all Friday mornings from 7:30 to 8:30 AM. This is a great place to fellowship with other dads while beginning your day with devotion and prayer. We encourage you to join us for the entire meet-up, or just grab a cup of coffee after dropping off your student.

The Coffee Stop is held in the soccer field parking lot. The meeting place changes to the Fine Arts lobby in the case of inclement weather.
