    April 2016 Edition Revised ESLRs By Lauren Harvey The Expected Schoolwide Learning Results (ESLRs) at BFS have been revised and are now simpler, clearer, and easier to measure. The BFS ESLRs represent the summative skills and characteristics that we believe are most important for students to develop by the time they graduate. The official launch was Wednesday, April 6, 2016 with a video presentation made by Mr. Hellman’s fifth grade class ( check the ESLR videos here! SHARK ESLRs explained) and a visit from Sharky who distributed a pencil set to all students. Students and teachers also have t-shirts with the new ESLRs to wear on spirit days. The ESLR revision process began in the fall of 2015 when students, parents, and teachers were surveyed to identify the qualities that students should have upon graduating from BFS. Compiling the survey results was a team effort over several months. The new ESLRs are now organized into five categories — which spell out SHARK!
