Student Links to Learning

​​Find some great websites and learning resources!  Most student school Apps  (Google Drive, Sora, Library Catalog, i-Ready, Reading Plus, Math Expressions Common Core, Wixie, BrainPOP & BrainPOP Jr, WeVideo) are accessed through the BVSD Portal or Single Sign On SSO.  Access to these apps is thorough: Each student has a district IT Portal, also known as the Single Sign On or SSO.  We use this at school and students can log in at home.

Student login info: Please contact the school or Sam Palsmeier for student login information.
