Keeping Teens Safe This Winter Break

As winter break approaches, many families look forward to time together, holiday celebrations, and a well-earned rest before the new year. This season also brings more social gatherings for teens—school events, celebrations with friends, and increased independence as schedules shift. While these experiences can be positive, they also come with risks that are important for parents and caregivers to keep in mind. Our district’s Health Services Team is sharing information and resources to help families support safe, healthy choices during this time.

BVSD Staff Profile: All in the family: Identical Twins hold the same jobs as kitchen leads at Horizons & Sanchez

Coral Barnett and Carolyn Menees are identical twins, can you tell? And both are kitchen satellite leads at schools in BVSD. Coral has run the kitchen at Sanchez for two years, and Carolyn has done the same at Horizons K-8 for 8 years. Their younger sister Kelli Quimby is also a Food Services Assistant Floater who occasionally helps in both of her sister’s kitchens.

What brought this family to BVSD? A love for serving kids, a pride in their work, and most importantly the feeling of support and camaraderie they feel with the BVSD food services staff
