Mitchell Covert led BC3 with an 80, marking the seventh time in the past 20 matches he’s posted the team’s lowest score.

Future educators in the Early Childhood Education (Pre K–4) program at BC3 recently brought math to life by designing interactive games for preschoolers from the Amy Wise Children’s Creative Learning Center.

The hands-on activities took place in the Dr. Robert L. Paserba Teaching and Learning Lab on BC3’s main campus — a space dedicated to helping future teachers gain real classroom experience.

Experiences like this help BC3 students build the skills and confidence they need to inspire the next generation of learners. 🍎
