Hello, Scottie families!
It is hard to believe that June is already here and the finish line of the 2025–2026 school year is in sight!
This time of year is a wonderful opportunity to have a conversation with your children about the importance of finishing the year strong. Keeping up our focus and effort over these next few weeks will continue to support our Scotties both now and in their future endeavors.
We have an exciting, event-filled end of the year coming up. We look forward to our band, strings, and chorus concerts next week on Monday and Tuesday. Bonnie Brae Field Day 2026 is scheduled for next week on Wednesday, June 10. We are still in need of volunteers for Field Day. Please follow the link to volunteer here to let us know how you would like to help!
Next Friday, June 12 is our final SCA Spirit Day of the year - Hawaiian Luau Day. Come dressed in Hawaiian gear, island/beach gear, or wear Bonnie Brae colors of blue and white.
Thank you for your continued partnership and support. Let's make these final weeks fantastic!
Morgan Birge, Principal
Rose Stephens, Assistant Principal
Natalie Vershaw, Assistant Principal
Family. Relationships. Success.
