Good Afternoon 8th Grade Families!
We are mailing out letters for the 2026, 8th Grade Promotion Ceremony. Promotion is scheduled for Wednesday, May 27, 2026 at 7PM located at Olivet Nazarene University.
The letter contains essential information about Gown and Tassel costs (please note that caps are not part of the ceremony), as well as how you want your child's name displayed on the Promotion Certificate and program.
Also, due to lack of interest over the last few years, BUGC will not be hosting formal Promotion Pictures this year.
If you do not get your letter in the mail by next Friday, December 12th, please reach out to our office at 815.929.5200 and we will make sure you get the information you need.
We are excited to share this special milestone with you. Thank you for all that you do!

Are you a student who loves to learn? Do you enjoy trivia, history, science, math, and literature? Have you ever wondered when all those useless facts you have in your brain would be useful? Then we need YOU to join the Scholastic Bowl Team! Scholastic Bowl is a fast-paced, competitive academic activity where teams buzz in to answer questions across all subjects. It's a fantastic way to challenge yourself, learn new things, and represent our school! Tryouts will be held on Dec. 11th from 3:00 - 4:30. If you are interested in trying out, you need to complete the Try-Out form located in the Tiger Talk presentation. We hope to see you at try-outs!
