Open House Nov 15th 5:30pm
Did you know that your child can attend Billingsville-Cotswold Elementary School (BCE) even if it is not your neighborhood school? BCE is a partial magnet school, which means our student population is comprised of students attending their neighborhood zoned school, as well as students from across Charlotte attending BCE in a magnet capacity. By applying for a magnet seat via the CMS School Choice lottery, your child can attend an award-winning International Baccalaureate (IB) magnet school, focused on preparing students to be the internationally-minded leaders of tomorrow. Join us for our next open house on November 15th at 5:30pm to learn more about our incredible school and community!

MOBC (Men of Billingsville Cotswold) is hosting a social on Thursday, November 3 at Leroy Fox Cotswold (705 South Sharon Amity Road) starting at 6:30pm. Come out to meet other members of the MOBC community and hear what we have planned for the rest of the school year.
