Bertram Family Connection
March 31st, 2020
News from Bertram
Enhanced Contact Options
We hope that by today you have been able to connect with your child's teacher. If you have not, please call 512-763-0382 and Mrs. Schreiber will be able to help you get connected.
Please remember that our teachers are available from 8am -4pm to help and assist your children. During this time of closure in order to care for their own families, they will not be available after hours or on weekends. We know that many of families are experiencing new daily schedules with balancing work and children. Here are a few ideas to help your child connect with their teacher during the school day:
1. You can provide the Google Meet information to your child's day time caregiver, including the phone number to call in. Students can access the meeting no matter who they are with.
2. Remember students do not have to attend everyday. If they can find 2 times a week that works for your families schedules that is perfect!
3. If it is just not possible to attend a Google Meet by internet or phone, email communication with your teacher is acceptable. Please send your teacher pictures of the work your student has accomplished so that she will know how to support and help.
Your child's teacher is working hard to connect with them at least twice each week. Please help us by helping your child attend at least 2 Google Meet sessions each week.
Mr. Roberts created an at home music lesson! Enjoy!
Student email
Students in grades 2nd through 5th have a district email powered through gmail. To log in, students will use their student IDs (lunch number) for the username and district issued passwords.
EX: username: studentid@burnetcisd.net
password: bcisd*** (3 numbers)
*Please email your child’s teacher if your child does not remember his/her log-in information.
Turning Work In
Your teacher will give specific instruction for turning work in. We will provide a variety of options including being able to send a picture, discussion with teachers during Google Meet, and other options. Teachers will specify the preferred method. If your family cannot access that method, simply communicate with your teacher and they will work with you.
