NEW SCHOOL YEAR! NEW ACTIVITIES!

Calling all SBCSC and SBEZ teachers, coaches, club advisors, parents, and boosters!

Are you planning the school year and want to start a new club? Do you need support to buy equipment, supplies or uniforms? The SBAA is here for you with Co-Ex Grants that support co-curricular and extracurricular activities in ALL SBCSC schools.

We are accepting applications now for the 2023-2024 school year.  Applications are reviewed monthly.

Ladies Night Out

Ladies! Job got you down?
Kids won’t stop whining? House a mess? Dance it off at a special event just for ladies at Finnies Next Door!

Put on something comfortable, meet your girl gang for a night of good music and wild dancing, and still make it home in time for a great night of sleep.

We’ll be living our best lives and supporting SBCSC kids and their extracurriculars. Feel free to register ahead of time or show up and pay at the door!

 

And don’t worry if you can’t make it this time: Save the Date for another Dance Party coming up on October 26!

CO-EX GRANT SPOTLIGHT:

Clay Softball

The SBAA was proud to partner with the Clay Softball Team to help them purchase new team jackets last spring. The jackets were not only a source of team pride and unity, but also served a practical purpose as the athletes played in wind, snow, and hail!

“Clay High School Softball hosted our 6th annual Strike Out Cancer Event. We raised $3,000 for women battling breast cancer. We raised the money through a bake sale and by doing a silent auction. We also put together (with the help of the other participating teams) chemo bags for ladies to have while they are going through chemo. The bags included blankets, magazines, gift cards, etc. The experience was amazing!”
Kathryn Rodriguez, Coach
