Hello Bonneville Family,
Today, our Vikings took part in a review of our school culture and expectations—responsibility, respect, and being ready to learn. Our students enjoyed engaging with these important reminders, especially through the videos created by our student leaders (SBO, Peer Leadership, LIA). They did an amazing job helping us remember key points such as staying safe, not running in the hallways, and keeping our hands to ourselves. A big thank you to everyone who helped make today possible! We take great pride in allowing our students to take the lead at our school, and it’s inspiring to see them develop such important life skills.
As a reminder, we will have no school this coming Monday, January 20th, in observance of the federal holiday, Martin Luther King Jr. Day. Before becoming a school administrator, I had the privilege of teaching Spanish, Social Studies, and English as a Second Language here at Bonneville. As a history enthusiast, I’ve studied many incredible figures like Abraham Lincoln, George Washington, and Simon Bolívar. Martin Luther King Jr.’s legacy also resonates deeply with me. His commitment to equal rights for all, and his message of kindness, love, and respect, is something we can all draw inspiration from.
I’ve had the chance to stand where Dr. King stood when he delivered his famous “I Have a Dream” speech, and as I stood there on the steps of the Lincoln Memorial, I reflected on how each of us, in our own way, is a part of that dream. Every day, we have the choice of how we treat others—whether they speak our language, look like us, or hold different beliefs. What we all share is our humanity: we make mistakes, we seek love, and ultimately, we all want to be good to one another.
As you enjoy the long weekend, let’s take a moment to choose kindness, respect, and happiness in everything we do.
I love our Vikings, our teachers, and our amazing community!
Mr./Señor Bailey

Personal Electronic Devices Policy
Starting Tuesday, October 15th, personal electronic devices will no longer be allowed during lunch periods. This aligns with the Granite School Board’s decision for all K-8 students, encouraging face-to-face social interaction (as referenced in The Anxious Generation by Jonathan Haidt, Ch. 5). Devices should be out of sight either in backpacks, lockers or left at home. If a device is seen or heard, it will be taken and held in the main office until the end of the day. Multiple violations will require a parent/guardian to pick up the device. Bonneville Junior High is not liable for lost or stolen personal devices.
