Students of Differing Abilities (S.O.D.A.) Track and Field Meet
On Wednesday May 16th, several BHES students
attended the S.O.D.A Track and Field Meet. All participants had a great day
with many athletes walking away with several ribbons. We would like to thank our staff and parent volunteers for ensuring the day went smoothly. Go Bengals!
EQAO
The Assessment of Reading, Writing and Mathematics, Primary
Division and Junior Division tests the reading, writing and math skills
students are expected to have learned by the end of Grade 3 and 6. Students write
this test during a two-week testing window in May/June each year. Our grade 3's
will be writing next week and our grade 6's will write the following week. Our
students and teachers have been working hard to prepare for this assessment. We
wish them all the best. Go Bengals!

Edsby
This week, on Tuesday, May 15th teachers began a
new attendance process. The new web based platform is called Edsby. At the moment,
only our teaching staff will be using Edsby, but in September, we will be rolling
out a version that will allow parents to report absences electronically.
Information will be sent home before the end of the school year explaining how
to set up and Edsby account. In the meantime, please remember to write notes or call the school to report
all absences as you normally would.
