ATTENDANCE AT BBHES

Attendance at school is one of the most important factors in our students’
education. We understand illnesses happen and emergency life events occur; these
are a priority. However, consistent attendance at school is vital to healthy
academic and social growth for our students.

Schools are required by Ohio law to notify families when a student has become
“excessively absent” or “habitually truant”. These are different, but both have
a potential negative impact on the academic and/or social growth for your child.
Excessively absent means a student has been absent for 65 hours in the school
year, or 38 hours in one month. These hours can be for both excused or unexcused
reasons, and once a student reaches the threshold it may be why the student is
struggling in school academically and/or socially. For clarification, excused
absences are for the following reasons: a verifiable illness, a death in the
family, an approved vacation, or a religious holiday. Once a student has reached
or passed this threshold, the families will be notified that their child has
been excessively absent from school, and moving forward if the student misses
three (3) or more consecutive days of school, documentation will need to be
provided in order to count the days as excused. An absence intervention team may
be put into place at this time and meetings scheduled with the guardian(s) and
student to set up a plan to increase attendance.

Habitual truancy means a student has unexcused absences for 72 hours in a school
year or 42 hours in one month. An absence intervention team will be assigned to
your child and a plan created in partnership with the guardian, student and
school team will be created and implemented to increase school attendance.
Typically, a student will reach the excessive absence threshold well before they
will become habitual truant.

If your child has met or exceeded a threshold, you will be receiving a
notification letter by the end of the week outlining the absences and this
information.. The main concern with the excessive absences is that for some
students, this has a direct connection to difficulty understanding subject
concepts, developing meaningful peer relationships and keeping
healthy/productive routines. We understand that for many students who are
excessively absent, this could have been mainly from a family trip, one week of
a bad illness, or all from excused absences. Remember, we are required to notify
families, regardless of if the absences are excused or unexcused, both types
count toward the threshold, and the student still has not been in school for an
“excessive” amount of time.

Please help us stay committed with communicating to our students the importance
of consistent attendance to school. If you have any questions about your child's
attendance, please reach out to the grade level principal. Thank you.

REMINDERS FOR ARRIVAL

If you are dropping your child off in the morning, please use the drop-off loop.
There are several students being dropped off in the parking lot and walking
across the lot to the school which is causing an unsafe situation. There are
others who are pulling up by the handicap parking spots and creating a second
drop-off line. This is creating a problem to those who need to access the these
parking spots. It is critical that we all keep our students safe by following
the protocols in place. Thank you!

WATER BOTTLES

We have an increased number of students bringing metal cups to school such as
Stanleys and Yetis. These cups are not secure and spill throughout the day.
Please encourage your child to bring a plastic water bottle with a screw top
cap. Thank you for your assistance with this.

ATTENDANCE AT BBHES

As we begin the second semester of the school year at Brecksville Broadview

In the next couple of weeks, if your child has met or exceeded a threshold, you

information. The main concern with the excessive absences is that for some
students, this has a direct connection to difficulty understanding subject
concepts, developing meaningful peer relationships and keeping
healthy/productive routines. We understand that for many students who are
excessively absent, this could have been mainly from a family trip, one week of
a bad illness, or all from excused absences. Remember, we are required to notify
families, regardless of if the absences are excused or unexcused, both types

JINGLE BELL JOG/ HOLIDAY GIVING

Please join us in helping to spread some holiday cheer to families in our school
community through the BBHES Jingle Bell Jog! This project, supported by our PSO,
helps provide families with a little extra during a time that can be financially
difficult. This year we are asking families to donate any amount through this
online link or by sending in a cash donation. The donations will help our BBHES
families who could use assistance. If you have any questions, please email Mrs.
Toth (tothc@bbhcsd.org). Donations can be sent to school or dropped off at the
main entrance by Friday, December 15th.

To celebrate this season of giving, all of our PreK through 5th-grade students
will participate in a Jingle Bell Jog - Fun Run around the playground on
December 20th. Students will receive bells to tie to their shoes, and the
students will jingle their bells as they walk/run around the playground. Thank
you for your support of this very worthwhile project and have a happy, healthy
holiday season!

THANK YOU TO PSO!

Thank you to our PSO for the wonderful classroom parties on Friday. The costumes
were so creative, the food was yummy, and the games were fun! Thank you for
planning such fun parties for our kids!

Please note: Kids will not be permitted to wear costumes on Tuesday. Costume day
was on Friday, October 27th.

BOOK CHECK OUT INFORMATION

With a longer book checkout time period, we thought it would be helpful for you
and your student to receive regular updates on what books your student has
checked out from the library. A checkout notice will be emailed to the student
directly and the email address in our records for home every Sunday night. If
the system and everything works correctly, If you are not receiving a notice,
then your student does not have a book checked out, or I don't have your email
address correct in the system. Please note, that there are never fines for
overdue books. If a book is lost or missing, let us know. We will mark it as
such in your students' record and closer to the end of the year figure out
missing book fees. (So many times the books are found - hoping to alleviate that
stress/worry/refund.) Please email hustonk@bbhcsd.org with any questions or
concerns.

receive them at no cost. Please contact Food Service Supervisor, Amy Voigt with

PAX TOOTLE RAFFLE WINNERS!

CHARACTER COUNTS AT BBHES

Each month BBHES will focus on a different character trait of a good PAX leader.
We will be on the lookout for students who display these character traits.

The word of the month for October is Accountability. Accountability means taking
ownership of one's actions and responsibilities. It means giving one's best
effort at all times. When you are personally accountable, you take ownership of
what happens because of your choices and actions. You do not blame others or
make excuses, and you do what you can to make amends when things go wrong. To be
accountable is to own your choices!

Three students from each grade level who display this character trait on a
regular basis will be chosen to earn a golden coin to use in our Book Vending
Machine. We know our students can do it! Winners will be announced at the end of
the month.

UPCOMING ASSESSMENTS

As many of you know, beginning in the 2023-2024 school year and in accordance
with Ohio’s dyslexia support laws (ORC 3323.251), all Ohio schools must
administer an approved tier 1 universal dyslexia screener that can assist in
identifying students whose current level of skills may indicate a potential for
being at risk of reading difficulties such as dyslexia.

There are no exceptions or exemptions in the dyslexia support laws. All students
in grades K-3 must receive the tier 1 universal screener. BBHCSD will be
utilizing Acadience (formerly known as DIBELS) in grades K-1 and i-Ready
Literacy Tasks in grades 2-3. While some components of these assessment tools
have been updated to meet the requirements of the law, they have been used in
the past in BBHCSD.

Both assessment tools serve the dual purpose as tier 1 universal dyslexia
screeners and determining on-track and off-track (in fulfillment of the Third
Grade Reading Guarantee law). The only difference stipulated in the law is all
kindergarten students are to receive the tier 1 universal dyslexia screener in
January. Thus, the winter administration of Acadience will be used for
kindergartners as their tier 1 universal dyslexia screener. Assessments will
begin this week and conclude on September 29.

Students in Grades 4 and 5 will also be taking the i-Ready Reading Diagnostic
Assessment. The assessment window will be closing on September 29th for all
students in grades K-5.

SCHOOL ATTENDANCE

BBHES will continue to focus on school attendance this year and the importance
of getting your child to school on time. School begins promptly at 9:00 a.m.
This means that your children must be in their classrooms ready to learn at this
time. If your child will be absent from school, please call the attendance
call-off line at 440-740-4100 no later than 9:00 a.m. Please be sure to leave
your name, your child's name and teacher, and the reason for your child's
absence. If you do not leave a reason, your child's absence will be marked as

Regular school attendance is essential for your child's academic success,
personal development, and future opportunities. To ensure your children attend
school consistently, establish a daily routine that includes a set wake-up time,

call your child's grade-level secretary.
* When arriving to pick up your child at the car line, please be sure to

in the event of an emergency as well.
* Please do not block our crosswalks. We have students who walk to and from
school each day.

PIKMYKID DISMISSAL APP

BBHES will continue to use the PikMyKid dismissal application this school year
just like last year. The student information should still be populated in the
program. We will update bus numbers as soon as they are made available to us.
Your child's car tag number should remain the same as last school year. All
families will get two car tags which can be picked up at the Meet and Greets.

If you are not familiar with the app, please download it and review the
information below.

PikMyKid is a dismissal software that is intended to simplify dismissal, reduce
traffic congestion, and most importantly, improve overall safety. The unique
features of PikMyKid allow you, as parents, to easily change pick-up modes,
quickly delegate to an alternate individual for pickup, change to an ‘After
School’ program, and even schedule for future pickup mode, pickup individual,
and after-school programs. This app allows you to be in full control of your
child’s dismissal and it gives the school information regarding dismissal and
the ability to acknowledge every change and instantly check your child’s
dismissal status should you have a question.

To Learn a little more on your own, please check out the following link that
will show you a few of the PikMyKid features.
https://www.pikmykid.com/features/for-parents/

All families will need to download the application and complete the registration
process if not already done.

Below are a few resources to assist with the process.
