2025 - 2026 Member Dues: The BCSS Board of Directors met on June 18th to approve the 2025 - 2026 budget and member dues.  The Board remains mindful of the financial pressures faced by schools in allocating resources across curriculum delivery, extracurricular programs, clubs, and athletics. However, a modest increase to membership fees for the 2025–26 school year was deemed necessary to maintain and support the organization’s operations. Membership dues for standard schools will increase by approximately 2%, while online schools will see a marginally larger adjustment due to the significantly greater administrative workload required to support their student-athletes, although they remain much lower than similar sized standard schools.  Please see attached memo for the 2025-26 Membership fees.
