Building Our Future Together (Survey for All)
Your feedback is needed to help direct the future of our school facilities in Batavia. The district has been engaging in a master facilities planning process for two years, and before final recommendations are made to the board, your feedback is needed. Go to www.bps101.net/boft to review the details and take a survey.
The Building Our Future Together Core Team will meet to discuss questions and comments from the community at 6:00 PM on Monday, April 26. The public is welcome to watch this virtual meeting live and submit questions to the Core Team. Advanced registration is required.

Safe Practices for All (REMINDER)
Please continue to practice safe mitigation measures outside of school. Wear a face covering. Wash your hands with soap and water. Watch your physical distance, staying at least 6 feet from others. Please remember to keep your student home if they are not feeling well. All classwork and testing can be made up at a future date.
We’re Hiring
The success of any future changes in the learning mode will partially rely on the availability of additional staff. We have multiple jobs posted for lunchroom aides and paraprofessionals. More information can be found HERE
Batavia Foundation Grants for 2020-21
This past fall, the BFEE board approved the expenditure of $21,000 for teacher grants. They wanted schools, including Batavia’s Virtual Academy, to have immediate access to these funds in order to enhance hybrid and remote learning. BFEE is pleased to announce that these funds were put to great use! They put together an infographic to highlight how the funds were utilized across all schools. The staff was greatly appreciative for the generous donations, and some of the feedback can be found on the BFEE website.
