A quality k-12 education from Battle Creek Public Schools
unlocked a world of opportunity for Terry Burleson.
A 2005 graduate of Battle Creek Central, Terry is an
example of the many students who thrive in our
uniquely diverse learning environment that offers
more choices and more experience that lead to
educational excellence.
Under the caring leadership and instruction of Battle Creek
Public School’s dedicated staff, Terry received the knowledge
and inspiration to follow his dreams. His high school counselor
at BC Central saw Terry’s potential and encouraged him to
consider attending the University of Michigan. And he did
just that, with great success.
After graduating from one of the top universities in the
country, Terry has now returned to Battle Creek Public Schools
as a member of our outstanding staff, working with students to
help them understand the importance of a college education
and how they can obtain it.
At Battle Creek Public Schools, our students are
going places. And we help them get there.
The place to be, the place to stay.
Where are you going?
Terry Burleson—
a journey of success from BCPS to Uof M and back again

THINK ABOUT IT!Children of alcoholics are 4 times more likely to
develop problems with alcoholhttp://www.nacoa.net/impfacts.htm
Several decades of research showsthat some teens are more at risk for
developing a substance abuse problem than other teens.
www.drugfreebc.org
4 Common Risk Factors Associated with Teen Drug and Alcohol Abuse:1. Family History: Family history of drug or alcohol problems can place a childat increased risk for developing a problem. Children can inherit genes thatincrease their risk of alcoholism, so having a parent or grandparent with alcoholproblems may indicate increased risk for the child.2. Mental or Behavioral Disorder: If your child has a psychiatric condition likedepression, anxiety or ADHD, he or she is more at risk for developing a drug oralcohol problem. Although not all teenagers with these disorders will develop asubstance abuse problem, the chances are higher when they have difficultyregulating their thought and emotions. 3. Trauma: Children who have a history of traumatic events have been shownto be more at risk for substance use problems. Therefore, it is important for par-ents to recognize and address the possible impact of trauma on their child andget help for their child. 4. Impulse Control Problems: Young people who engage in more dangerousrisk taking generally have a higher tendency to use substances and experiencenegative consequences.*Source: Parenting Practices, Help reduce the chances your child will develop a drug oralcohol problem parent toolkit wwwdrugfree.org
