• MONDAY, OCTOBER 3RD IS PUPIL FUNDING COUNT DAY! Please make every effort to attend school on Monday, October 3rd. This is the official date the state uses to fund our students in BVSD. Funding is based on student attendance and it is important to account for everyone to maximize our funding. The official window is September 26th - October 10th. Thank you for your support in this effort.

• Chromebook Health Tips: Please encourage your child to turn off their Chromebook completely every day. That will help it work better. Also, if you notice they have nine zillion tabs open, encourage them to close them. Many students are trying to access Google Classroom, Schoology, etc. through open tabs rather than the SSO.

BVSD owns and operates 61 buildings constructed in nearly every decade of the last 140 years. We all know how important quality learning environments are for students and teachers to do their important work every day.

Over time, building materials and equipment age, wear out, and become outdated. BVSD must invest in maintaining and updating facilities on an ongoing basis to ensure they are safe and functional and can continue to support teaching and learning for decades to come.

This fall, Boulder Valley School District voters will cast ballots on a $350M tax-funded bond measure to provide building renovations described in the 2022 Facilities Critical Needs Plan. The plan outlines a strategy for investing in all BVSD schools to address ongoing maintenance needs in aging buildings to extend their useful life; to plan for enrollment growth; to create more Career and Technical Education opportunities; and to make it easier for students of all physical abilities to enjoy our playgrounds.

Specifically, the plan calls for:

• Updating worn-out equipment and materials in aging buildings and constructing a replacement school for New Vista which is beyond repair,

• Constructing a new school in Erie to address overcrowding at other schools due to enrollment growth,

• Expanding and creating industry-inspired labs, shops, and classrooms in PK-8, middle, and high schools and the Boulder Technical Education Center (TEC) so more students can benefit from Career and Technical Education, and

• Replacing playground mulch on a number of playgrounds with a solid, rubberized surface which is easier for children of all physical abilities to use.

• 6th, 7th, and 8th Grade Student Planners are live! As a way to increase communication between what’s going on in the classroom and home, we have created teacher-updated weekly planners. Please use as a reference for homework and activities in your student’s daily schedule.
