The Buzz
Errol Hassell Family News- September 11, 2020
Buzz...
The first day of school is Monday! We are so excited to finally start the school year! If you haven't met with your child's teacher yet, don't worry. There are still opportunities to do so. The last two weeks went by like a blur, and teachers want to meet with you.
As the weeks progress, please know that there are consistent opportunities to connect with your child's teacher. Email is always an option, and there is time built in to Wednesdays for teachers to meet (virtually) with families to discuss your child's progress.

Library Access

Books for Kids
Partnering with BSD Nutritional Services we’ve given away 3,671 books through 38 Summer Meal Site visits.
Summer Reading Program
1,500 kids and teens completed Beaverton City Library's Summer Reading Program—it was a joy to see kids and teens pick their books!
Nearly all of your children have public library cards! They can check out ebook and downloadable audiobooks, access online homework help and databases, AND check out up to 5 books or audiobooks from the library. Have questions? Just ask! We LOVE to help you and your students get the most out of these cards.
Each student’s Youth Access Card number is just BSD followed by their student ID number. The default PIN is just the last 4 digits of their student ID number.
For example: Library card number= BSD123456 PIN=3456
