Attention all future students! If you submitted your application to a post-secondary institution this month, now’s the time to stay on top of your game! Check your personal email regularly and set up your portals if needed. Keep an eye out for updates on your admission status, any outstanding items, and important deadlines.

For instance, some schools like MacEwan have a tight timeframe for accepting admission offers and submitting deposits, so don’t miss out! Each institution has its own unique system, so make sure you’re fully engaged and informed. Your future awaits!

The “Cell phone policy” has gotten lots of media attention this summer. We know that phones have a negative effect on attention and a negative effect on learning. Working with families and students to ensure a positive learning environment for our students is our goal.

Call the office if you need to get a hold of your student! Please do not call or text them in the middle of class.

Please ensure you are aware of the policy in our Handbook:

BRSD AP 135 - USE OF PERSONAL MOBILE DEVICES AND SOCIAL MEDIA IN SCHOOLS governs device use.

Specifically to BRACE:

1. Students will keep their devices in their backpack or bag and will not use it during instructional time unless for instructional purposes as directed by staff.

2. Students may use their phone at break times and may use it in the classroom only during lunch time.

3. Students need to discuss special circumstances with their teacher and administration. Administration will meet with families to discuss the need and a medical note may be required.

Progressive discipline will be implemented as per AP 135.
