Eagle Update: October 30, 2020
Barton Hills Elementary
Hello BHE Families:
I hope you all have enjoyed the change in weather this week - I am admittedly a fan of the cooler temperatures!
I just have a few reminders this week:
- Turn your clocks back one hour this weekend for Daylight Savings
- No School for students on Tuesday, November 3rd. Most staff will be participating remotely in Professional Development to allow our custodial staff to do some additional cleaning and disinfecting around our building that is easier to do when the building has fewer people :).
- Please review the latest AISD Open for Learning Newsletter for some important district updates.
Have a fantastic weekend and thank you as always for your continued support of our school!

As an added safety precaution for our campus communities on election day, the Austin ISD Board of Trustees approved an update to the 2020-21 calendar to include a student holiday on Nov 3, Election Day.
