Raise Money While Having Fun 

Denim & Diamonds is a party for BGA parents, planned by BGA parents, to raise money for enhancing BGA’s curricular opportunities, arts and athletics programming, and campus spaces. Here are just a few of the enhancements recent Denim & Diamonds funds have made possible:

  • Digital Arts studio hardware and space updates for Middle and Upper Schools,

  • Lower School music program instruments and equipment,

  • Leadership program launch curriculum for Middle School,

  • Gym wall pad and 9 Square for Lower School,

  • Library furniture upgrades for Upper School,

  • Athletic performance nutrition program and volleyball standards for Middle and Upper Schools,

  • Athletic branding murals for locker rooms and replacement windscreens at Guffee-Brown Stadium and Stewart Campbell Track and Soccer Complex,

  • Cherry Sports Center team film room, and

  • An updated theater projector for the Sondra Morris and Robert N. Moore, Jr. '52 Center for Arts and Entrepreneurship.

Parent Community Involvement

Denim & Diamonds is largely made possible by Parent Association volunteers, but it takes the entire parent community to make it successful. From funding class auction items to volunteering of their time and efforts, parents in each division pitch in to benefit our students, staff, and faculty.
