Sign up to meet your teacher! (Link) Each teacher has set aside time to meet with you next week.

We have three classes that will be filled by new staff. We are working this weekend to fill those positions. As soon as it is possible, those teachers will be reaching out to you in order to meet you and share information about the school year. Again, we appreciate your patience at this time.

Student Chromebook Login Change:

Beginning September 8, students will use their full BSD email address to log into a chromebook (ex. 12345@bsd48.org). This provides increased account security improvements. Setup, login instructions and answers to general support questions can be found on the FAQ page.
