November is National Homeless Youth Awareness Month 💚
This month, we’re bringing attention to the challenges faced by homeless youth and the importance of providing them with support and resources. If you know of any students experiencing homelessness, please reach out to our McKinney-Vento Homeless Liaison, Cleather Nichols, at cleather.nichols@bhas.org. #HomelessYouthAwarenessMonth
Hello Tiger Nation,
We're committed to providing the best possible school lunch experience for our students and staff. To help us achieve this goal, we're conducting a school lunch survey. Your feedback will help us understand your needs, preferences, and any areas where we can improve.
Please take a few minutes to complete the survey: bit.ly/3XCoQZI
We appreciate your participation in making our school lunch program a success!

Friendly reminder, there will be no school on Friday, October 25, 2024, due to a District-Wide Professional Development.
Classes will resume on Monday, October 28, 2024. Have a great weekend!
It is that time of year! Parent Teacher Conferences will be tomorrow Thursday, October 24th from 9 am to 7 pm. We strongly encourage all parents and guardians to attend this opportunity to engage with your child's teacher about their academic progress this year. If you cannot make it, please feel free to reach out to your child's teacher to schedule a time that works with your schedule.
There will not be in-person learning tomorrow as it is an asynchronous (virtual) learning day. Students will receive their assignments to be completed while at home.
Every day matters! Missing days can affect your child's progress. Please do your best to ensure they're in class every day. If they're absent, let us know right away. Together, we can help them reach their goals! 🎓🐅
Tomorrow's BHAS Board of Education Work Session has been rescheduled to Tuesday, October 29 at 6:00 p.m. The agenda and Zoom information will be posted on our website next week at www.bhas.org
We are so grateful for the support we have received from our families at Fair Plain East! Here are a few images from FPE 's Academic Game Night, where we learned about the ways our games involve math skills while having some engaging yet friendly competition! We look forward to continuing to have such great opportunities for our students' families to join us in advancing their academic learning throughout the school year! #TigerPride
