Wildcat Welcome ... It's a Gold Rush!

We’re going on an adventure, Wildcats!

Come try your hand as a prospector while showing your Wildcat Spirit and giving back to support our school. Inspired by our football team’s new gold helmets — and the history of miners in 1848 in Coloma, California — we’re carrying forward the spirit of #DiggingforGold this year.

Legend tells of two brothers who gave up too soon, only for the next owner to dig three feet deeper and strike gold. The lesson is clear: resilience and persistence uncover the true treasures. That’s the spirit we’re embracing at BGA.

The BGA Fund is our most important philanthropic priority, fueling opportunity for every student, every day. Every gift makes a huge impact and supports:

• Academic Excellence: Fueling professional development, curriculum enhancements, and classroom resources that challenge and inspire.

• Arts, Athletics, and Activities: Expanding opportunities for students to grow as leaders, teammates, and creative thinkers.

• Access and Affordability: Providing need-based financial aid that opens doors for deserving students across our community. Did you know 1 in 4 of our students receive financial aid to be a part of the BGA Community?

NEW: With your support of $100 or more from now until Wildcat Welcome, you’ll receive a BGA Spirit Pack* (hat, poms, game-day button set, and an interactive gem mining experience) at Wildcat Welcome on Friday, August 29.

Together, let’s dig a little deeper to fuel the future of every Wildcat.
