Important BASH Updates: Cell Phones & Discipline 2024-2025 SY
Technology Usage Fee Info.
New for 2024-2025: The Technology Usage Fee is included in the Annual Student Information Verification (ASIV). There is NOT a letter to send home with students. ASIV includes the following:
As a component of our student 1:1 device program, the District continues with a “Technology Usage Fee.” This fee supports the maintenance and upkeep of equipment distributed to all Grades 2-12 students. The current “Technology Usage Fee” is $20.00. Any family who qualifies for the state of Pennsylvania’s free lunch program will have the fee waived. Any family who qualifies for the state’s reduced lunch program will have the fee reduced to $10.00. Families experiencing financial difficulties are encouraged to contact their school office to discuss additional payment options. More details regarding payment of the Technology Usage Fee will be emailed in October.
Waiting until October allows the free/reduced lunch determinations to be complete and eliminates the need for tech fee refunds, etc. In October, the district will notify parents/guardians of the payment procedures, due date, etc.
Parking Information & Permit Registration
BASH Drivers,
During the first week of school (August 26th thru August 29th), any student with a valid Driver's License may park on campus. Parking is first come first serve, so please make sure you plan ahead. "I couldn't find a parking spot" will not be a reason to be late to school.
The Class of 2025 will have priority in purchasing a parking permit. Please make sure that you have all of your obligations cleared by August 18, 2024 in order to be eligible to purchase a BASH Parking Permit. You can check the "fees" via Infinite Campus and email Mr. Wanish to check on detentions. Please review the Parking Permit Application Rules/Info attached below. The Class of 2025 (only) will receive registration information via Infinite Campus, on SUNDAY, AUGUST 18, 2024 at 7:00PM. Please make sure you are monitoring your email to register and are signed into your G-Suite account to complete the G-Form. Make sure you have your vehicle: Year, Make, Model, and License Plate information. Students MUST have their valid PA DL when purchasing their ticket. Permits are first come first serve based on eligibility and will sell out. After Labor Day, we will determine if parking permits are available for purchase for the Class of 2026.
Thank you and enjoy your summer!
BASH Admin.
