Dear parent or guardian please let this serve as a reminder that you should not share personal or financial information over the phone with unsolicited callers. If you receive such a call, hang up immediately. We are sending this reminder because parents and/or guardians of children who have recently taken an SAT or PSAT exam have been receiving scam calls requesting personal information, including a credit card number, to mail the test results.
Additional tips about how to protect yourself from SAT test-related scams can be found on the Better Business Bureau website and below:
Always be wary of unsolicited callers: If you receive a random call from someone asking for payment, research their organization before sharing any personal information.
Double check with your child: If someone claims they're calling because of a service your child requested, hang up and check with your child first.
Understand the College Board's practices: The College Board will never ask you for your bank or credit card information over the phone or through email.
Don't give your financial information to strangers: Never agree to pay a stranger with any form of payment for a purchase you didn't initiate.

Brushton- Moira Central School recognizes National School Bus Safety Week
School bus safety reminder:
While school bus safety is important year-round, National School Bus Safety Week, from October 21-25, 2024, is a good time to remind drivers of the importance of slowing down and being aware of school buses in their communities.
The U.S. Department of Transportation’s National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) is urging all drivers to slow down and be aware of school buses in their communities. Although school buses are one of the safest modes of transportation, injuries and fatalities do occur outside of or near the buses. Most often, these tragedies occur because a motorist has failed to slow down and obey the bus’s stop sign, or to follow local traffic laws. Nationally, school bus passing is illegal and it is a deadly risk to bus riders and their caretakers. Drivers should always come to a complete stop when a school bus stop-arm is extended and the red lights are flashing.
There will be a Trunk or Treat at BMC on Saturday, October 26th, sponsored by BMC FFA and Town of Moira Historical Association. Please see the flyer for more information.
Bridge Out-- We were notified this afternoon, that the bridge on the Gallop Road in North Bangor has been closed until further notice. Due to the closure, BMC Bus #132 will be running approximately 10-15 minutes earlier on the Gallop Road and 10 minutes later for its stops on on the Taylor Road and 11B. This will impact both the AM and PM runs.
