Brighton Central School District

Welcome to the Brighton Central School District’s Community Bulletin Board where you can find community related e-flyers and links. Our District works with community non-profit organizations to present information about local activities that have educational, civic, recreational or cultural value for students.  Information posted has been approved for distribution as a public service. The school district does not endorse community information posted here and does not assume responsibility for the activity or the organization. 

We respectfully request that you do not contact principals and schools in our District directly. If you wish to submit information to share on the Bulletin Board, please email Dan Goldman, Communications Coordinator, at daniel_goldman@bcsd.org. 

In talking to community non-profit organizations, we learned that some families are not seeing information and flyers on the Community Bulletin Board and in our weekly District eNews. In order to help get the word out about these programs, we’re going to offer limited flyer distribution a few times a year at Council Rock Primary School and French Road Elementary School. The deadlines for submission will be Oct. 10, Jan. 9, March 6, and May 8 and they would be distributed the following week. Flyers must be approved before they are dropped off at schools. Contact Communications Coordinator Dan Goldman at daniel_goldman@bcsd.org for approval and details on how many flyers to print and how to group them for classroom distribution. We will still post community information to the Community Bulletin Board and in the District eNews.

BHS Community Education Programs

The Summer 2025 NYS Driver Education session meets from July 7 – August 7. Lecture classes are held online using Zoom on Mondays, Tuesdays, Wednesdays, and Thursdays from 12:45 to 2:15 p.m. Driving instruction groups also meet Mondays – Thursdays. There are five options for driving instruction time. At registration, you will number them by preference. You will be placed in a driving group and find out which one the day after registration. The five options are: 8 – 9:30 a.m.; 9:30 – 11 a.m.; 11 a.m. – 12:30 p.m.; 2:30 – 4 p.m.; 4 – 5:30 p.m. All registrations take place online. Registration starts at 8 p.m. on Tuesday, June 10. The website enrolls students on a FIRST COME, FIRST SERVED basis. When many people register simultaneously, the class can fill very quickly. If the class has already reached the maximum number of students when you register, you are strongly encouraged to join the waitlist! Brighton Community Education contacts waitlisted students (or their parents) by email if there is room for them in the class. We usually move a student or two from the waitlist, so be sure to get your name on it if that is the only option. Visit their website for complete information about the class. It is listed in the NYS Driver Education category. If you have any questions after reading the class description and all the documents referenced in the class description, please contact Brighton Community Education at ce@bcsd.org or 242-5200, ext. 5595.
