Grade 9 students received their immunization consent form from Public Health this week. These consent forms need to be signed by a parent or guardian and returned to the Homeroom teacher by Thursday, October 1st. Forms need to be returned even if consent is not given for the immunization.
The immunization clinic is for a standard vaccine administered to grade 9 students to immunize against meningococcal and varicella diseases. The clinic will be held in November at BMHS. The date is yet to be determined by Public Health.
Reminder: Picture day will be taking place Thursday, September 24th for Group A and Friday, September 25th for Group B. If parents or guardians wish to order pictures, please refer to the brochure sent home from the company LIFETOUCH.
Please take the time to verify the information on the green form sent home for student demographics and medical information. Return this as soon as possible to the homeroom teacher to ensure we have accurate information in case of an emergency.
School fees and forms can be filled out online at http://web1.nbed.nb.ca/sites/ASD

| Dear Parents and Guardians,
We have received the first shipment of
laptop ordered through the government subsidy program. We are starting to distribute
laptops at the end of the day to the group B students. Tomorrow we will
distribute the laptops to the group A students.
We recommend that the students open
the box once they get home and keep the box for warranty reasons, if they encounter
a problem with the laptop.
·
Once the student has received a new computer, it is considered
their property. If they are having an issue with their device, they can request
a loaner device, but the school is not responsible for fixing their broken
computer. This is a conversation between the student and the vendor (IMP Solutions).
·
Students can call 1-800-387-5757 to speak with the vendor directly
or through website https://www.dell.com/support/home/en-ca/
We
appreciate your cooperation,
BMHS

give feedback and review the learning. It is impossible for teachers to receive
all the work in the last week of the semester unless the teacher has
specifically asked students to return their portfolio or work at the end of the
semester. Teachers will reach out to student within the next few business days
to let the students know if they are “on-track” to get the credit.
·

| Grade 12 students registered to take the AP exams in May (or June) must read
through the Testing Guide information in preparation for their exam. The
checklist is also very helpful for exam day. Printed copies of the checklist will
be available at the main door when students come to retrieve their belongings
from school next week. We wish our students the best of luck writing these
exams.
How to Prepare Your Students for
the 2020 AP Exams
Additional information is now available to help you guide your students through the AP® Exam day experience. New Resources • 2020 AP Testing Guide (.pdf/10.9 MB): The guide, designed for educators to walk their students through test day, provides information about:
◦ The AP Exam e-ticket ◦ Five steps to take before test day ◦ Understanding the test day experience ◦ Exam scores, credit, and placement
• 2020 AP Exam Day Checklist (.pdf/526 KB): Teachers should have their students complete this checklist for each exam they take and keep it next to them while testing.
• Explainer Videos: New videos are available to give students quick, easily accessible information about their test day experience, what they need to do to prepare, exam security, and more. Explore the playlist.
Other Reminders • AP Exam Demo (available May 4): AP students should use the clickable exam demo to practice the different ways to submit their exam responses. The demo will help students confirm that their testing device will be able to access and run the online exam. If they can’t access the demo, the final slide of the Testing Guide can help them troubleshoot. The sample content in the demo will be the same for all users and isn't a practice exam. We’ll send educators and students an email to remind them when the demo is available. Please encourage your students to take this important preparation step.
• Online AP Classes and Review Sessions prep week: The week before exams, online AP classes will focus on the exam day experience and sample exam questions.
• Student Outreach:
◦ If you have any difficulty reaching your students, use your student roster in My AP to access email addresses and phone numbers. ◦ If any of your students are having difficulty receiving College Board emails, walk them through the steps on the "Confirm your email address" page |
| Good evening,
by now you would have read the message from the Minister of Education regarding
the Continuity of Learning Plan. We are keeping at the forefront, the reality
that New Brunswick is in a state of emergency as a result of a global pandemic,
I urge you to keep that reality in mind as we work in these difficult
circumstances to educate your child. The announcement of school closure for the
remainder of the school year has created a scenario that we have never found
ourselves in before. We are doing our best to adapt to this new reality.
Late last
week, the BMHS teaching staff and teaching teams had virtual meetings to start
working together to offer learning opportunities for our students that we
missed so very much. The teachers are eager to get this going, but they will
need this week to organize themselves as they are learning in doing things in a
very different way. We ask for students, parents and guardians to refrain to
communicate directly with teachers as they need this time to prepare the home
learning options for students.
This week,
starting on Tuesday, all students and/or parents will be called by their homeroom
teacher. The purpose of this call is to assess the students’ readiness for
learning. Making these contact homes are important to create the best learning
plan possible for all Highlanders. We will be starting to send home these
learning opportunities after Easter weekend.
We are working closely with Public Health and the District
to put a plan in place to allow students to pick up their learning and personal
belongings at school. Please stay tune
for more information about this.
In the meantime, I encourage you to visit the “Learning at
Home” resource web page created by EECD. You can find the link in the letter
that went home on April 2nd or on the district page. https://www2.gnb.ca/content/gnb/en/departments/education/learning_at_home.html
I appreciate your cooperation,
Stay Safe
and Healthy…

ATLANTIC
YOUTH CHALLENGE TO PREVENT DRUGGED DRIVING – THE PROGRAM
In Atlantic Canada, the John Howard Societies, RCMP,
Université de Moncton, and local high schools are coming together to deliver a
Challenge to Youth to Prevent Drugged Driving. Through professionally guided,
youth led school campaigns, students will be presented with messages which will
enable them to make informed, healthier decisions regarding cannabis use and
decrease the problematic behavior of driving impaired.
The evidenced based
program design guides students to become advocates for positive change in
respect to cannabis use and drugged driving. Students are asked non identifier
survey questions, at the beginning and end of the school campaigns, which would
indicate if the program positively influenced their decision-making and reduced
risk behaviors. Schools whose students led the most informative and creative
messaging are provided the opportunity to continue their message through community
engagement activities. Grade 10 students
will receive more information about this initiative on Feb. 18th
during a short assembly

Grade 10 students will receive more information about the
initiative below on Feb. 18th
during a short assembly:
ATLANTIC YOUTH CHALLENGE TO PREVENT
DRUGGED DRIVING – THE PROGRAM
In Atlantic Canada, the John
Howard Societies, RCMP, Université de Moncton, and local high schools are
coming together to deliver a Challenge to Youth to Prevent Drugged Driving.
Through professionally guided, youth led school campaigns, students will be
presented with messages which will enable them to make informed, healthier
decisions regarding cannabis use and decrease the problematic behavior of
driving impaired.
The evidenced based program design guides students to become
advocates for positive change in respect to cannabis use and drugged driving.
Students are asked non identifier survey questions, at the beginning and end of
the school campaigns, which would indicate if the program positively influenced
their decision-making and reduced risk behaviors. Schools whose students led
the most informative and creative messaging are provided the opportunity to
continue their message through community engagement activities. If
there are any interested leaders from Grade 10 who would like to support this
initiative, please give your name to the main office.

On September
30th, we'll be participating in Orange Shirt Day. Please see the following
explanation for Orange Shirt Day provided to us from the Province:
WHAT? A day to listen, learn, and celebrate Indigenous culture
WHY Orange Shirts? Orange Shirt Day is a legacy of the St. Joseph Mission
(SJM) residential school commemoration event held in Williams Lake, BC, Canada,
in May 2013. It grew out of Phyllis' story of having her shiny new orange shirt
taken away on her first day of school at the Mission, and it has become an
opportunity to keep the discussion on all aspects of residential schools
happening annually. The date was chosen because it is the time of year in which
children were taken from their homes to residential schools, and because it is
an opportunity to set the stage for anti-racism and anti-bullying policies for
the coming school year. It also gives teachers time to plan events that will
include children, as we want to ensure that we are passing the story and
learning on to the next generations. Orange Shirt Day is also an opportunity
for First Nations, local governments, schools and communities to come together
in the spirit of reconciliation and hope for generations of children to come.
Wearing
an orange shirt and promoting the slogan, Every Child
Matters, is an affirmation of our commitment to raise awareness of
the residential school experience and to ensure that every child matters
as we focus on our hope for a better future in which
children are empowered to help each other.
