Birthday Walks

We LOVE to celebrate your child’s birthday and invite you in for the celebration as well.  Your child’s teacher will set up a time specific time for you to attend.  (Each class is a bit different on times so please see your child’s teacher for more details) We ask that you bring a snack to share with the class.  You should also bring along a timeline of pictures of your child.  This can be as elaborate or simple as you like.  In the past we have had posters, computer slide shows, actual timelines etc.  Please include a picture for each year of your child’s life and any important events, for example, becoming a big brother or a trip to Disney.  We will ask you to tell us a bit about your child at each year of the their life and they will walk around the “Sun” with the “Earth” representing each year they have been alive. This is a special event in the classrooms and the children look forward to their walks each year.  If your child has a summer birthday or an early fall birthday, we can arrange for a birthday walk on their half birthday.

Snack and Laundry Sign Ups

We ask for parents to supply snack and help with laundry a few times a year.  Below are snack sign up for each class and laundry sign up for the school.  You will receive a list of needed items from your child's teacher the week before.  Please purchase items as directed as we have many school allergies and only certain foods are allowed to be consumed in class.

Snow Day Policy

I

We use BH-BL as a guide to determining how we will handle inclement weather.  We reserve the right to make decisions regarding canceling or delaying school that differ from the school district.  Determinations will be made as early as possible and the following criteria is used in determining snow days:

​

If BH-BL has a 2 Hour Delay, we will operate on a delayed schedule as follows:

 

  • AM Half Day Program And Toddler :  Classes will be canceled 

  • Full Day Program:  School will open at 10 am   

  • PM Half Day will operate as usual

 

If you choose to remain at home due to the weather, please notify the school.  

 

  • If BH-BL Closes, we will also be closed for the day.

 

In case of inclement weather during normal school hours, we may close early.  Parents will be notified in a timely manner. â€‹

*Snow day notifications will be sent

via Procare, Email and posted to our Social Media*
