We matter

Dear Bonnie Brae Families,

We want to take a moment to thank our entire school community for your continued support.  We have had fun celebrating the Month of the Military Child along with our spirit week activities.  We hope you enjoyed the video to students, teachers and families showing a small glimpse of our recent time together.  If won't be long before we're all back together again. Here is it again if you missed it. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=S4ZvFIT6lNI

Earlier this week, principals, school leaders and teachers engaged in training to get our Distance Learning Plan back on track.  We are pleased to announce that our teachers have been working diligently to prepare for a successful week of face-to-face sessions beginning on tomorrow, April 27th.  

This week our specials (PE, Music, Art,  AART, and Library) classes will be asynchronous lessons unless otherwise noted.  You can find links to their videos and activities on Blackboard 24-7.  An updated newsletter about specials is available weekly and posted on our school website by Mrs. Batty. Copy and paste the link  below inside a new window to find out more.

What can you expect?

  • Individualized secure links in Blackboard Collaborate Ultra (BBCU).
  • Each student has a unique link connected with his or her FCPS Gmail and student ID.
  • The new link does not require the need to access the Blackboard 24-7 portal.
  • Synchronous classes, office hours and meetings can occur easily with BBCU.

We are so fortunate to work with an amazingly gifted staff and supportive community.  If you have any questions, specific to your child’s needs, please do not hesitate to reach out to a teacher, counselor or administrator.  We are here to support our community as we continue with our distance learning plan and resume live sessions this week. 

 

Sincerely,

 

Mrs. Cage, Principal

Mrs. Bennink, Assistant Principal

Mrs. Killingsworth, Assistant Principal
