October- Newsletter
A Message from our Administrator
Hello BTLVA families,
Happy October! It is hard to believe that in a few short weeks we will be at the half-way mark of the first semester! It hardly feels that way as we continue to enjoy extended summer weather!
Some great tips to keep in mind this time of year:
- Make sure you are checking your email. If you are not receiving emails regularly from us, please let us know and we will check and make sure we have the correct email in all entities!
- We hope your family is never sick! But, if your child is ill and not completing assignments or on the online platform for an extended time, please let your child's teachers and our office know. Attendance online is measured by average number of hours and completion of assignments; having confirmation from you of illness helps us help you and your student to get caught up!
- Also, a reminder to all Kiel resident and open-enrolled students: please check your Skyward account to make sure you have paid any fees or chromebook care insurance for this year.
Thank you for sharing your students with us!
