BBHCSD District News

The Brecksville-Broadview Heights City School District will begin pre-registration in February for students who will attend Kindergarten for the 2012-2013 school year. The procedure has changed and parents no longer need to pick up a registration packet at one of the schools.

By mid- February, parents will be invited to visit this website and click on the KINDERGARTEN REGISTRATION button to pre-register their child. Once pre-registration is completed, parents will be sent an email which will let them know the documents and other information required for actual registration in March.

The Kindergarten Registration Event is scheduled for March 13, 14 and 15th, at the Board of Education, 6638 Mill Road, Brecksville. Questions about kindergarten registration can be directed to the Enrollment Office at 440.740.4027.

Service Projects Link Schools and Community

All second graders at Chippewa have been asked to do a service project during which they help others in their community. They have been encouraged to take photographs or create drawings of their active participation and create a poster spotlighting their efforts to share with their class. Through this project the students actively become aware of how a little help goes a long way and the importance of taking part in community projects. To support our students, the second grade teachers all participated in either a church or community project as well. Click the picture to take a look at the video gallery.
