Happy Friday Bonneville Families,
THANK YOU, THANK YOU, THANK YOU for your generosity in Viking Tree Donations!!! We met our goal and will be able to support families in our Bonneville community. When our financial secretary announced this morning that we met our goal…my breath caught for just a moment and I had to blink back a few tears. This time of year is so busy for so many of us and often times we get caught up in all the “things” we need to do. However, hearing that our community came together to support other families gave my heart a little lift and helped me remember why I really do have the best job. I truly appreciate your willingness to help others and to continue to be examples to your students.
We have 2 weeks left in Quarter 2 and until Winter Break. I know everyone is tired, sick, and probably a little cranky, but we need to finish this quarter strong. We need to end in a positive way so we can enjoy the winter break and come back in January ready to start a new year and a new quarter. Today we celebrated our positive behaviors with our PBIS party. It was so much fun to see students enjoying their treats and winter activities with friends and teachers. Please continue to reinforce and expect positive and appropriate behaviors from your students.
Please see the attached flyers for information on what to do if your child is sick from our district nursing director.
Thank you for your continued support of Bonneville. Have a wonderful weekend!
