Would you please let us know if you’d like for your students to receive a breakfast/lunch meal on any inclement weather remote learning days for the remainder of the second semester? Please use this form to sign up. Knowing your needs now will make our planning much easier.

Blue Ridge will join the Illinois State Board of Education (ISBE) in the ninth statewide survey of school climate and learning conditions. The survey provides a unique opportunity for 4th-12th grade students, teachers and parents to have a voice in improving their schools. Please see the informational letter here: https://5il.co/p5qp. Students and teachers will take their survey between February 8 and April 2. If you would prefer that your student does not take the survey, please complete and return this form https://5il.co/p5qq to your student’s school by February 5. The parent survey supplement opens today, February 3, and will remain open through April 2. You may access the parent survey here:http://survey.5-essentials.org/illinois/survey/parent/. These surveys will serve as an opportunity for schools to reflect on progress since the last statewide implementation. You will receive reminders during the survey window as we highly encourage all our teachers, students, and parents to make their voices heard to impact positive growth in our schools. #br_u_knighted

Good morning. Due to the conditions of the rural roads this morning, we will be learning remotely today. No on campus attendance for special education students. Special note: The COVID-19 vaccination clinic scheduled for today is postponed. More details will be shared when available. #br_u_knighted
Good evening. We do not yet have a decision for school tomorrow, but we will be choosing from 1) in person learning, 2) remote learning due to weather, with no special education student attendance, or 3) emergency day- no school at all. The emergency day will be used if power outages would keep us from being able to learn remotely. Please stay safe and we’ll communicate by 5:45 a.m. #br_u_knighted
Good morning! As we watch the forecast for this afternoon and tomorrow, there is a possibility that we would need to use a remote learning day tomorrow due to weather.
