Parents:
We are excited to announce that BESD 53 is participating in Speak Up! This survey will help us answer questions, such as:
• How are our students using technology for learning in and out of school?
• How important is the use of technology to our teachers and parents? What types of technology do our teachers find of value and how are they using it in the classroom?
• Do our ideas about technology align with our students’ parents?
Taking the survey is easy! Plan to spend approximately 20 minutes.

We look forward to BESD 53’s strong participation in Speak Up! Be sure to take the survey by May 24th, 2024. If you have any questions or concerns, please contact Technology@besd53.org.

School Resource Officer Cox supporting April Autism Acceptance Month! Officer Cox, along with many other members of the Bourbonnais Police Department, are wearing a colorful puzzle Police patch on the back of their uniforms to raise awareness about autism acceptance and to promote inclusion and connectedness for people with autism. Social and community support can help people with autism reach their full potential.
Last night BESD53 held our "Kindergarten Roundup"! We had Kindergarten teachers from every building meet the incoming students and did a quick screener to help ensure the best placement for them. Information was also handed out on kindergarten readiness, and a fun photo op for our future BESD53 Tigers! Thank you to all who came and the staff who helped make this a success!
