Hello BCLA-McCormack Family!
Welcome to BCLA-McCormack! As we enter into year two of the BCLA-McCormack merger, we are excited to continue sharing happenings within the school and those in partnership with the surrounding community. A few highlights for the school this year include the expansion of arts programming to include music/band and theater, the addition of two new science labs at the Dorchester campus, the addition of a life skills room at the Dorchester campus, and the pilot of an Early College program with UMass Boston, where students may earn college credits beginning in tenth grade. We are excited about the school we are building together and the increased participation from all stakeholders (students, families, staff, and partners). At BCLA-McCormack, our vision is to develop community leaders who will make the path of opportunity wider for those following in their footsteps. With continued support from families and the community as we lead the way for our children, we are sure to reach our goal!
Principal O. Johnston
