Blossom & Bloom, BABS Gala 25 was a big success last Saturday! We raised almost $150,000 to support the primary mission of BA to provide an excellent college prep education for your sons and daughters. We were thrilled with the results and thank everyone who attended, donated, bid, volunteerd, or otherwise contributed to the success of this event. God is good!

Governor Walz has proposed the elimination of funding for counselors, nurses, transportation, and textbooks for non-public school students. This will reduce critical funding for BA but also for our local school district as well (transportation).
