ACADEMIC AFTER SCHOOL: BJSHS Students, do you need help with homework, writing a paper, or studying for a test? Do you need a quiet place to read? Academic after school begins Monday, September 11th! Grab a snack from the cafeteria and head to Ms. Coughlin's room. It's early in the 1st marking period, but it's never too early to make sure you are staying caught up in all of your classes. Academic after school will run Mondays and Wednesdays in Ms. Coughlin's room and Tuesdays and Thursdays in Mrs. Fischer's room from 3:20-4:20. You will need to make sure you have a ride home. See Mrs. Hargrove if you have any questions!
SAFER AND STRONGER: With the passage of our bond proposal in 2021, Beaverton Schools affirmed its commitment to a safer, more secure campus with the improvements that would follow. Today's safety drills marked another step in honoring that pledge to protect our kids. Students and staff trained to properly deploy The Boot, a system designed to alert the entire campus in the event of an emergency, lock down each building and prevent intruders from entering the classroom. Available in each classroom throughout the district, The Boot is a barricade and alarm system that can withstand 16,000 pounds of pressure while alerting administrators and law enforcement that a lockdown is underway. Today, staff and students observed a safety demonstration and then practiced proper procedures in the event The Boot is necessary. (BES kids also got to meet safety mascot Bobby The Boot.) Learn more about this latest Beaverton Schools safety measure at bit.ly/3qYOCLw and watch this space for more safety information soon. #SafeAndSound #GoBeavers
