BR Families- I have three important messages to share with you. First, attached is a COVID-19 update from today. https://5il.co/meac Second, I’d like to clarify for our Pre-K students and families that Pre-K students will remain in their current Blue and Silver hybrid learning model when other grade levels transition to four days of attendance. The reasoning for this is the inability to maintain social distancing at such a young age. The third message is for Knight families- Attention Knight Learner Parents & Guardians: After consideration of current health metrics and community and staff surveys, the Board of Education has approved for Grades K-8 Knights to return to on campus instruction on 11/4. Please fill out the attached form for each of your children and specify if you would like them to continue as Knight learners or to return to Schneider or BRIJH for in person instruction. Please use the link below to complete and submit your survey by Tuesday, October 27.
Knights Return to In Person Learning Survey
Good morning, BR Families! After consideration of current health metrics and community and staff surveys, the Board of Education has approved for Blue and Silver learners to attend four days per week, beginning in November. Grades K-8 Knights are also welcome to return to on campus instruction at that time. Monday, 11/2 will be a remote learning planning day. Tuesday, 11/3 is Election Day and schools are closed. We look forward to a 'reopening' on Wednesday, 11/4, all conditions permitting. Much more information will follow, but we wanted to send this update right away. Have a great day. #br_u_knighted
At tonight's BOE meeting, we begin our Exemplary Knight recognition for our students and staff who excel. The board will also be discussing the current health metrics and possible revisions to our learning models. You can join the livestream at 7pm using this link: https://www.twitch.tv/blueridgecusd
