Fall 2020 > Remote BHMS

Remote BHMS

Our faculty and staff continue to develop a robust remote learning program, building upon what was learned last year. Using Canvas, our Learning Management System, teachers are able to seamlessly connect with students whether in-person or remotely. Through ongoing professional development, teachers will continue to refine the remote learning program to best serve the needs of our students and families in keeping with our core Montessori values.
