Lake Superior State University Guarantees Admission, Plus Scholarships, To High School Seniors From LSSU-Affiliated Public Charter Schools Across Michigan
July 19, 2021
Dear BCA Families,
At Bay City Academy, our motto is: ‘Actions Over Words, Service Over Self’. We are very grateful
for our partnership with Lake Superior State University who also abides by this motto by making
higher education opportunities available and affordable for students from all backgrounds.
Beginning this year, exclusive only to our students, LSSU is offering all graduating
seniors:
● Guaranteed admission status to LSSU.
● An automatic $2,000 per year Chartering Laker Scholarship, renewable for up
to four years, above and beyond any other federal, state or institutional aid
students secure.
This opportunity shows students that there is a respectable college ready to accept
them if they combine hard work ethic and a positive attitude regardless of their
backgrounds or circumstances.
If you have any questions regarding this scholarship opportunity or our partnership with LSSU,
please contact Mrs. Long at longd@baycityacademy.com or 989-293-6091.

Elementary Masks
Dear Bay City Academy Families,
A new executive order directly impacts our kids at Bay City Academy. Governor Whitmer’s Executive Order #2020-185 states that starting October 5, 2020, all students in grades K-12 will be required to wear masks in their classrooms. Previously, Governor Whitmer had only required that our 7-12 students wear masks.
While we understand this is not optimal for everyone, our collective responsibility is to comply with all mandates carefully. Each classroom teacher will be working with the students this week to help make the mask transition smooth for our kids. We will make sure that we provide frequent mask breaks for our students throughout the day. If you have any questions, please contact Mrs. Long at 989-293-6091, or longd@baycityacademy.com. We appreciate your patience, understanding, and flexibility as we continue to adapt during the COVID-19 pandemic.
Thank You,
Mrs. Long
Principal, Bay City Academy
