Spring is in the air, summer is almost here, and the BBCC childcare department was very
productive during the 2020 pandemic. We have missed the children at all levels, and hope it will
not be long before they will return into our care.


The staff team has been very busy rewriting all of our policies and procedures, updating our curriculum
& lesson plans and multiple hours taking advantage of trainings and webinars.

In following protocol for a safe environment, we also worked hard, using the
time to clean and organize all of the learning material and deep clean all classrooms. We even
had the classroom carpet and flooring replaced. It will be so fun to work in what will seem like a
new facility!


It is not often our team has opportunity to see other areas of campus. However, as BBCC
personnel continue to work with limited staff in some departments, our team assisted with Live
Chat, Covid-19 Contact Tracing, Financial Aid Office and the Business Office during peak times.

Winning Logo Design

by Communication Coordinator

In May of 2020, the STTACC Board shared a contest with our member colleges to design a logo for our Annual STTACC Conference. At the May 26 Board Meeting, the Board voted on the designs and have chosen the winner!

Winning 2021 STTACC Conference Logo designed by Jimmy Mullins
Maintenance Mechanic II at Seattle Central College

The winning logo design for the 2021 (Virtual) Conference was submitted by Jimmy Mullins, a Maintenance Mechanic II (and former Graphic Designer) at Seattle Central College.

For his time, consideration and ultimately, the winning design, Jimmy won a free ticket to the 2021 STTACC Conference ($25 value) and a $25 gift certificate to the location/ business of his choosing.

In the truest spirit of generosity, Jimmy humbly requested that the $25 STTACC Conference ticket for this year be given to someone who could otherwise not afford to attend, and for his $25 gift certificate to instead be donated to Seattle Children’s Hospital. WOW!

The STTACC Board is truly thankful for Jimmy’s endearing and creative efforts, and we are in the process of adding the $25 STTACC Conference Scholarship as well as donation to Seattle Children’s Hospital.

Stay tuned for more from the STTACC Board regarding the 2021 STTACC Conference!
