Bureau Valley Return to Learn FAQ
https://docs.google.com/document/d/18roVNb7boQSoGihjafJhdCQVLkn-BQNWuDyF1Lc5gg4/edit?usp=sharing
Important Return to Learn FAQ and Parent Selection Survey has been emailed to all Storm Families.
In conjunction with the board-approved Return to Learn Plan and fall registration, the administrative team had hoped to send out a form today to give parents the opportunity to choose between the in-person learning plan or full-time remote learning plan. However, the Illinois State Board of Education released a 103-page update of school recommendations yesterday, which will need to be closely reviewed and considered. Therefore, we have decided to send out the "Parent Selection" form next week along with an FAQ to assist families with their selections and respond to concerns shared in the community survey emailed earlier this week. To correspond with this delay, we will extend the deadline to opt into full remote learning beyond the original July 31st deadline to August 5th.
Reminder: If you wish to register in person, please contact your student’s building office to make an appointment! When you arrive for your appointment, a mask is required.
Online Registration is still open! Call your student's building today to make your appointment for in-person registration which is July 27th - July 31st in each school building!

Dear BV Parents/Guardians,
While we are still working to determine the circumstances for the beginning of the school year, we would like to help facilitate the registration process to ensure it goes as smoothly as possible. Online registration for the 20/21 school year began on July 9th and Bureau Valley CUSD #340 is still strongly recommending online registration due to the health considerations of all involved. However, there are still certain forms that will need to be printed and either turned in, or mailed, to your child’s school depending on the grade levels of your children. Online registration will stay open until July 31st.
In-Person Registration will be structured differently this year due to the health and safety guidelines we are currently under.
-In-person registration will be offered by appointment only during the week of July 27th - July 31st in each school building: Wyanet PreK-2, Walnut PreK-5, and Manlius 3-8 and 9-12.
-Secretaries will be available to set up appointments starting July 20th. Please call each of your children’s buildings to set up an appointment.
-Appointment Schedule:
Monday, July 27th 8:00 a.m. - 3:00 p.m.
Tuesday, July 28th 12:00 p.m. - 7:00 p.m.
Wednesday, July 29th 8:00 a.m. - 3:00 p.m.
Thursday, July 30th 12:00 p.m. - 7:00 p.m.
Friday, July 31st 8:00 a.m. - 1:00 p.m.
-Completed forms and fee payments may be dropped off during any of these designated times using a drop box inside the main entrance of each school. Please be sure to drop forms and checks at the building your child attends.
As always thank you for your continued understanding and flexibility.
Yours in Education,
BV Admin Team

April 17, 2020
Dear Storm Families and Staff,
Today, Governor J.B. Pritzker announced the end of in-person learning for the 2019-20 school year. This news is disheartening since we had held hope that we could reunite students and teachers in our schools; however, we value and respect the highest priority of keeping all members of the Bureau Valley family safe and healthy as we band together to stop the spread of this virus.
As we move forward with the governor’s decision, Bureau Valley schools will continue to use Remote Learning policies and procedures that have been developed and implemented since April 1st. This learning plan will continue through May 21st, though there will be no Remote Learning on the following weekdays: April 27th, May 11th, and May 22nd.
In addition to measures for Remote Learning, food services will continue to be offered on Mondays and Wednesdays through May 20th, including on non-Remote Learning days. These meals can be collected from 10:30 a.m. to 12:00 p.m. at the same locations in our communities that we’ve been using.
The Bureau Valley administrative team knows you likely have many questions and concerns at this time, many of which we also have now. We will continue working hard to determine and communicate solutions that focus on our top priorities: maintaining safety for all, supplying meals for students, and providing meaningful learning opportunities. The decisions may take some time as we await further guidance from the government, health agencies, and the Illinois State Board of Education. Therefore, we appreciate your patience and understanding while we strive to provide a successful path that focuses on the best interests of the students, families, and staff members.
Sincerely,
The Bureau Valley CUSD #340 Administrative Team
