The Weekly Digest for November 15, 2023
November 15, 2023
Today is National School Board Member Appreciation Day! Here are a couple of sentiments we have heard shared with our Board members: Thanks for everything you do to support the students and staff in our school district. You are appreciated! Your commitment represents both a challenging responsibility and a rewarding opportunity. Your efforts in steering our educational mission will impact every student — and perhaps eventually, their children as well. Thank you for stepping up to serve and perpetuate this exceptional community.
Community Resources
BPS101 staff are here to help and support students in academic, social, and emotional learning. Sometimes, the support we provide may need to extend outside our building. Our community has many resources for students and parents to access additional support on various topics. Here are a few that are often used in our District:
