It’s another short but exciting week at Birchmount School!

🗓 Important Reminders

• No School for Students – Friday, May 2
  A heads-up that there are no classes for students this Friday, as teachers will be attending the New Brunswick Teachers Association Meetings. A great time for students to rest — and for staff to sharpen their pencils (and their minds)!
• Middle School GLOW Dance – Thursday, May 1
  We’re getting our glow on! Middle school students are invited to our GLOW Dance on Thursday evening from 6:00–7:00 PM.
  Please take note of the shortened timeline for this event.
  Admission is $2, and there will be a cash canteen with snacks available.

📚 Provincial Assessments Begin Next Week

Our Grade 4 and Grade 6 students will begin writing their Reading Assessments next week. These provincial assessments help inform our school, the district, and the province about how students are doing — and guide us in making any instructional changes if needed.

To help your child feel their best, please ensure they get a good night’s sleep and enjoy a healthy breakfast each morning. A well-rested and well-fed brain is a mighty thing!

Thank you for your continued support in making Birchmount a wonderful place to learn and grow.
