THE BREBEUF JESUIT SCHEDULE FOR 2020-2021
in February 2019, we embarked on a process to review our bell schedule in order to ensure that we are structuring our time in a way that aligns most closely with our school mission, particularly with the care of the student in mind. First, we listened to the experiences of our students. We learned what they loved about our current schedule, and what they wished was different. We asked them about the flow of their days, and several of our faculty & staff even shadowed students for a day to feel what it was like in their shoes. We also engaged with experts in the field, including a visit from a scheduling guru from the Independent School Management organization.
With this input, we established a set of design principles and goals for a new schedule. Then, over the past eight months, our academic leadership, along with a faculty committee, has worked to develop ideas and gather feedback from our students and other faculty & staff members.

BLACK STUDENT UNION COMMUNITY SERVICE EVENT AT COBURN PLACE
The Brebeuf Black Student Union organized a community service event at Coburn Place on Wednesday, December 4. Coburn Place is a “safe haven” for survivors of domestic abuse and BSU members organized a Christmas party/dinner, including activity stations, for the children.
The activities included Christmas ornament making, cookie decorating, and a photo booth. BSU students instructed the children and helped guide them through the various activities. It was a fun-filled event and Brebeuf students were encouraged to come back very soon. Special shout outs to Aanyah Harris and Nikya Thomas for conceiving of the idea and organizing the activities and communication with Coburn Place. Other BSU participants and organizers included Sadiyah Anderson, Ashlyn Winters, Christiana Vernon, Musa Ndhlovu, Brooklyn Chestnut, and Temi Osuntokuna. A thank you also goes to Mr. Joe Connelly for volunteering his time and energy to this experience.
