Students who
are going for a credit in their classes must make sure to hand-in assignments
and evidence of learning on a regular basis. Teachers must be given a chance to
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.
·
“L’Université de
Moncton” will be offering a virtual online program in French for grade
9 and 10 students. Due to the current COVID-19 pandemic this vastly
popular summer program will consist of themed weeks in the month of July.
Students can choose to register in as many weeks as they want, up to
the maximum of four weeks. The best part, it is offered free of charge. You must
register before May 24th. You can find more details on the
district and the school websites.
·
Any
graduates requiring final transcripts be sent must submit the request through
“Schoolcash” online, https://angloeast.schoolcashonline.com/.
(You can also find the link on the school website bmhs.ca.) Where it asks
reason for request, write FINAL TRANSCRIPT and make sure you include

final marks are done in June. If you have any questions please email monique.tower@nbed.nb.ca
Have a wonderful long weekend

| 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…

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.

Next week is final assessment week. Students are to be
at school and ready for the exams at 8:45am. The exam schedule is posted on our
school website. If a student is to miss an exam for a medical reason please
inform the school as soon as possible. An alternate time will be provided.
Students must bring all textbooks at the time of their exam and bring the
necessary supplies to write their exams. We wish the best of luck on these
final assessments.
Grade 12 students received a
Graduation Activities Informed Parental Consent form on Monday, May 27th. Please review this form for important dates
for Grads, sign and have your child return to the office. This form gives permission for your
son/daughter’s name to be shared as a graduate with the local newspaper, the
graduation ceremony program, grad photo to be included in the Grad Composite to
name a few. Please return these ASAP to
the main office.
As
is tradition at BMHS, we are asking the Grade
11 parents to donate a monetary contribution towards this year’s graduation
reception. We are suggesting a $20
contribution, but any amount would be greatly appreciated. Donations can be made at school cash online or
at the main office prior to June 14th. Next year your child will receive the same
benefit when they graduate. We are
looking for grade 11 parents to volunteer to help with the reception the
evening of Graduation June 20th.
Please contact the main office or email susan.lockwood@nbed.nb.ca
Out of bounds applications: If your child is attending BMHS as an “out of bounds”
student you must re-apply for next school year.
Please have your child return the application form as soon as
possible.
We
kindly ask that parents check school cash online to ensure that all of your
child’s fees have been paid prior to
exam week. If you have any questions or
concerns please contact the main office.
A reminder to graduating students who are going on to
attend college or university in the fall. If you would like your scholarships
which you have received, including entrance scholarships, to be included in the
graduation program please bring a copy of your letter, indicating you have
received the scholarship and the total amount, to Mr. Harris or Mrs. Dominie in
the guidance office. Please bring in letters by Friday, June 14th.
Graduating students who are attending university or college
in the fall need to make arrangements with the front office to have their June
transcripts sent to the institution they plan on attending. At the front office
are Final Transcript Request Forms (on bright pink paper). These need to be
completed, with all the correct information, in order for students’ Final
transcripts to be sent. The cost to send official transcripts is $2. With the
hustle and bustle of graduation we encourage graduating students to do this as
soon as possible.
Student Financial Assistance applications for students
beginning university or college in September 2019 are available online. They
can be accessed by visiting www.studentaid.gnb.ca.
Both online and printable applications options are available along with
information to help in filling them out.
Our PSSC would like to thank all the parents who took
the time from their busy schedules to answer our survey. It was a success
and will help us determine our objectives for our 2019-2020 school year.
We will share the survey results and our objectives for 2019-2020 when we
return in September. We wish everyone a safe and wonderful summer! |
