Information
Report Cards
Report Cards come out this week. Please make sure you’re able to log into the family portal before Friday. Information on the family portal can be found here. As we continue to work on reports, please remember that the system will put notifications of our ‘posting term grades’ in the portal. What we post as we work is not necessarily final, as we use the post function to confirm in-progress work. Reports are not official and complete until Mr. Oliver publishes them on Friday afternoon.
Lost & Found
Out Lost & Found is overflowing (and with some very nice stuff). Please have your child check for any belongings before Spring Break, when we take unclaimed items, clean them, and donate them.
2022-23 Registration Deadline
The deadline for new students to register (Kindergarten or otherwise) for the 2022-23 school year to be assured of a spot in their catchment school is March 31. While that’s more than a month away, it’s also right after Spring Break, which sort of feels like moving the deadline up to 2 weeks away. If you have a current student enrolled, and a Kindergarten student coming, registration for the younger is NOT automatic. You still must complete the registration process.
Parent & Teacher Interviews March 9 – 10, 2022
We have Student-led Conferences and Parent-Teacher Interviews scheduled for March 9 & 10. On those days, students will be dismissed at 1:33 pm. Book your appointment times at School Appointments: https://richardbulpittelem.schoolappointments.com
- Booking Start: Mar 1, 2022 12:00 am
- Booking End: Mar 8, 2022 11:00 pm
Teachers will be sending home class-specific information.
Early Start or Late Return for Spring Break?
If your student(s) are going to be starting spring break sooner than the last day of school (March 11) or returning after school re-opens (March 28). It is very important to let the office and your student(s) teachers know.
Please email rbeattendance@sd35.bc.ca with the name(s) of your student(s) and what dates they will be away from school.

Spring Fling
We are so excited to be bringing this event back this year! Planning is currently under way. If you would like to participate in the planning, please visit our Facebook page RBE Spring Fling | Facebook.
Our next meeting is this Monday at 7pm via Zoom.
Alternative Fundraiser
Due to the unprecedented nature of COVID-19 we have been limited in the ability to hold regular events to fundraise for our staff and students. This year the PAC would like to offer parents a new way to donate directly to the PAC, for those who do not wish to purchase goods or have limited time to participate in events.
A direct donation of $40 would be the equivalent to your child raising $275 through fundraising activities (Purdy’s, Neufelds, etc.). Funds raised go towards supporting teachers in their classrooms, busses for field trips, programs such as Dance Pl3y, Saleema Noon and more!
If you wish to make a direct donation, please send an e-transfer to bulpittpac@outlook.com with direct donation in the Message line. Please note, at this time we are unable to provide tax receipts.
Thank you to those who have contributed!
Next General Meeting
Don’t forget – our next meeting will be Monday, March 7 at 7pm via Zoom. – all parents are welcome to attend!
Quote(s) of the week
Something to read (or watch)
- We start each day by acknowledging that our school and community, and all we do there, reside on the traditional unceded lands of the Matsqui, Kwantlen, Katzie and Semiahmoo First Nations. And we do it with students leading the way.
- Check out the RBE Math Zone, a place where you can find information and resources for practicing math (the “new” kind, that you and I didn’t learn in school) at school and at home.
