Dear Parents and/or Guardians:
On January 26th, 2024, the Province announced three actions for the safety and well-being of students in relation to digital technology. A parent letter regarding the new restrictions on cell phones and personal internet-connected devices that will be in place for the 2024-2025 school year is available below.

As the weather warms up and students move outside for lunch, we need to remind everyone that Bert Bowes Middle School is a closed campus. This means that once students arrive at the school they are expected to stay on-campus throughout the day. 

This document outlines the District’s overall response in emergencies including the procedures that take place in the event of an emergency evacuation.

 
Emergency Preparedness Guide

School District 60 has added an updated emergency preparedness guide for parents and guardians on our website at https://www.prn.bc.ca/safety/plans-info/emergency-preparedness/ .

We have been amazed at the response to our FAMILY sessions on the topic of Social Media Awareness!
In partnership with the Ministry of Education and Childcare, through the erase strategy, we are pleased to announce that we have added three new dates. 

As a Middle School we have an closed-campus policy, which means that once students arrive at the school they are expected to stay on-campus throughout the day.  This is to ensure the health and safety of your child,

Learning Updates (Formerly Known as Report Cards) have been published to the MyEducation BC Parent/Student Portal for you to access. If you have issues logging onto the Portal there are several options for support:
