Back to School Bonnie Brae BBQ Bash Planning
 In order to help us plan for this event, please indicate your attendance if your family intends to attend the BBQ on August 19, from 11:15 - 12:30 PM.
Kiss & Ride Sign Up
As we welcome students back to Bonnie Brae ES, we want to ensure the safe arrival and departure of each child. Bonnie Brae ES has an established area called the Kiss & Ride (at our side parking lot), which is designed as a safe place for adults in private vehicles to load and unload children. With the cooperation of all drivers, we will be able to provide an efficient and safe transfer of children.
If you are interested in using Kiss and Ride to drop off or pick up your child, please complete the embedded form. Returning and new Kiss and Riders will receive new tags prior to students returning.
Parent Toolkit
Please visit our Parent Toolkit webpage where some yearly action items for all parents to complete are housed. Items with an asterisk (*) are time sensitive and require parent action.
