This year we will not be issuing devices to students until we have signed technology use agreements and the $25 insurance fee has been paid. The insurance fees help cover the cost of device maintenance, repair and/or replacement. Technology User Agreements are included in Skyward registration. If you have completed that for this year, you will have already signed that form. See the QR code to pay the technology user insurance fee below. Use the QR code to access "My School Bucks" to pay the fee or go to this LINK.

We hope you’ll join us at 9:30 a.m. on Friday, August 28th, for the first PTA Meeting of the year. We will hear updates from Dr. Rios and numerous PTA Committees, and members will vote to approve our budget.

We encourage every family to fill out the Big Form before it closes on Friday, September 4th. The Big Form is where you can join the PTA, purchase yearbooks, birthday marquee messages and extra directories, as well as donate to BHE's Underwriting Campaign and our sister school, Thornwood Elementary.

Yearbook:

The Big Form is your ONLY chance to order a yearbook, so be sure to do so before Friday, September 4th. Most families purchase a yearbook for EACH of their children since they have signing parties the last week of school. We’re not able to order extra yearbooks for those who forget, so order now!

Thank you to everyone who signed up to be a room parent this school year!

There are several openings still available in the Fall and Spring. Please visit the Room Parent Sign Up page to volunteer.
