We look forward to seeing our returning students again and extend a warm welcome to those who will be new to BVSD this year. School begins here in BVSD on August 18 for sixth and ninth graders, August 19 for the rest of the secondary grades, and on August 20 for elementary students.

 

The first week of school is always an exciting time and even more so for us this year. We are improving the school lunch menus, for instance. During the first week of school, students in elementary and middle schools will be bringing home a calendar of lunch menus for the coming year. Get a sneak peek of the healthier menus. 

 

We are also implementing our new curriculum this year, which was many months in the making. Watch for a future blog devoted entirely to this important topic.

 

All sorts of special events take place these first few weeks of school, too. Individual schools hold community picnics and back-to-school nights (see school websites for details). See our online calendar for details about district wide events, including those coordinated by the Parent Engagement Network.

 

Welcome back, everyone!
