A Message from the Principal
Fall is a great time of year at Bay Harbor. Not only are the colors of the leaves changing, but so are the students. So much academic and emotional growth takes place this time of year as students settle in and get used to “school life” again. You all recently received a message from Superintendent LaCroix which outlined ways to continue to support your children in their learning process. Below are the key points:
1. Attend parent-teacher conference with your student
2. Check your student’s grades on PowerSchool
3. Set continuous improvement goals, and
4. Communicate regularly with your child’s teachers
I would also like to send an appreciation for a FANTASTIC Fall Fest event. It was a classy event that not only engaged the students, but also the adults. Thank you to everyone for your on-going commitment in helping to make Bay Harbor a special place!
Your partner in education,
Tony
