Briar Hill Families

As the weather shifts this week, please make sure your child is dressed warmly for outdoor learning and play. We also encourage students to regularly check the lost and found for any missing items.

I want to reassure you that Briar Hill School is a safe, welcoming, and caring place for all students. When students feel safe, they are able to focus, explore, and fully engage in their learning. The safety and well-being of your child is always our top priority, and we work every day to provide a secure environment where every student can feel supported, confident, and ready to learn.

Thank you for your continued support in making Briar Hill School a warm and impactful place for our students.

With gratitude,

Nathan deBoer

Principal
