In lieu of having students bring in school supplies, we ask for $35/student so teachers can purchase needed supplies at discounted rates. Students need to bring their own inexpensive headphones and a backpack. Please pay for supplies here: Pay for Supplies!

Boulder Valley School District is continuing to move forward, cautiously, with its staggered and differentiated plan to return students to the classroom – beginning next Tuesday, September 29, with the groups listed in the chart below – but working towards including all BVSD students in coming weeks.
Please see this message for updates on the following:
-
Reminder: No school for students on Monday 9/21
-
Current health situation
-
Next steps for grades 3-12
-
Opting in or out of in-person learning
We want to provide a quick update regarding the Working Advisory Group. They are making excellent progress and, instead of waiting for the update to the Board scheduled in late September, they will be presenting their recommendations on Tuesday evening.
After reviewing the data we have collected over the past couple weeks, we have decided to start the school year on Wednesday, August 26 in Phase 1 – Home Learning.
Volunteer Opportunities are available at Birch throughout the school-year. Be sure to check HelpAtSchool.org for volunteer opportunities, Parent/Teacher Conference Sign-Up, and the Student Directory!
