Dear Bakie Families,
Welcome to the 2020-2021 school year! Whether you are returning or joining us for the first time, we look forward to starting school officially on September 8th for all kindergarten-grade 3 students and September 15th for preschool.
Despite the challenges we are facing due to COVID19, we are doing our very best to create a “school like”, rigorous remote learning experience for all our students. Information about teaching and learning during the COVID-19 pandemic including the School Board approved Remote Learning Plans for all Sanborn Schools can be found here: https://www.sau17.net/Content2/388. I would strongly encourage you to take time to familiarize yourself with these plans before school begins next week.
There are a number of online forms that need to be completed or reviewed annually. Forms need to be completed for EACH child enrolled except for the Family Handbook Confirmation and Free & Reduced Price School Meals Form. Note: Students new to Bakie School this year only need to complete the forms listed below under “NEW STUDENTS”.
All forms can be found on the Bakie School website or accessed by clicking the link below. We ask that families review and/or complete everything by Wednesday, September 30th.
As a reminder, we will be tracking student absences during remote learning using
PickUp Patrol. If your child will be absent from school on any given day, you should record it there no later than 8:00AM each morning. If you are unable to access PickUp Patrol, you may report your child’s absence by calling the school at 642-5272 and press option #2.
If you have any questions, please feel free to contact us.
Sincerely,
Chris Snyder
Principal
