TIGER TALK
Week of April 20-24, 2020
Digital Learning
While Governor Abbott closed the school building for the remainder of the 2019-2020 school year, that will not hold us back from continuing to grow our brains in a digital learning platform. We all know learning does not just take place between the walls of the school. With our three character traits we learn and exhibit at Brock~GRIT~RESPECT~RESPONSIBILITY, we will continue to learn during this challenging time.
STUDENTS~ You are our WHY! You are smart! You are strong! You are missed!
PARENTS~ You are more capable than you think! You were your child's first teacher!
TEACHERS~ You are relationship builders! You are innovators!
We will continue to support you in this journey of digital learning. Please do not hesitate to contact your child's teacher or Mrs. Kimberling if you need assistance. kkimberling@bisdmail.net.

It's a Great Day to be a Brock Tiger!
Grading Guidelines
As students continue learning through the BISD Digital Learning platform, our goal is to help students master the remaining curriculum content with meaningful teacher feedback.
BISD continues to focus on grace instead of grades and will apply this philosophy to grading as well as semester exams. Our primary focus is on the content within our core subject areas. Last week, BISD educators collaborated and agreed on a Pass/Fail grading plan for the 6th 6 weeks. Students who complete their assignments will receive a grade of 100. Students who do not complete their assignments will receive a grade of 69.
Information specific to each grade level is outlined here: CLICK TO VIEW GRADING GUIDELINES.
We are here to help your child succeed and work with your family to meet your needs!
