| Dear Highlanders,
Just a quick reminder that there is no school tomorrow, February 3rd due to today's school closure. The first day of school will be the group "A" only, on Thursday, February 4th.
After a semester of experience with the one day in school and one day home learning system, we are changing the student expectations for second semester. During the students’ home learning days, they will be required to join a team meeting for each of their 5 classes. Teachers will either teach new materials or give expectations of the students’ work when they are home learning. Attendance will be taken daily for all students. We hope this will permit students to stay engaged in their learning and connected to the school.

| Happy New Year Highlanders,
The BMHS family would like to wish you a great upcoming year and we are looking forward in finishing semester one. Just a quick reminder that tomorrow is a "Group A" day.
Before the break, we received an email from the Minister Cardy stating that we are invited to wear a mask for the first two weeks after the holiday break. At BMHS, we encourage staff and students to wear masks for the first two weeks of January. This is not mandated; it “strongly encourages” and “invites” the wearing of masks. So mask-wearing protocols remain the same as they have been under the Return to School guidelines for the current Yellow Phase.
May we all stay healthy and safe,
Mr. Daigle |
| We wish to thank our Highlander community for the strong
support shown towards the “Fill the Bus” campaign this year. We are very proud of the contribution we can
make to Food Depot Alimentaire.
Students
were entertained virtually in Homeroom for the Staff Talent show yesterday and
today.
We want to thank all staff for sharing their talents and
putting a smile on our Highlander faces. 😊
Yearbooks can be pre-ordered at School Cash online; reserve
your book of memories today.
The final assessment week for semester one will be held
January 25 – 29. Please see the January
Exam schedule posted on the school website.
A big shout out to all the parents that supported the
Friends of the Highlanders Codiac Coffee Fundraiser. We raised over $1100 to support our clubs,
sports and students in need.

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.

| 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
