Early Release Monday-December 9
Our next Early Release Monday is December 9. Students will be released three hours early at 12:15 PM. Parents and caregivers, please be sure to complete the Early Release Monday form that your child's teacher shared with you (and also located here) so that we are aware how your child will go home on December 9. Changes to your child's dismissal plan cannot occur after close of business Wednesday, December 4.
As a reminder, if you complete the form and share that your student will need to stay at Bonnie Brae on our Early Release Monday, they will be dismissed at the regular time of 3:15 PM. Thank you for completing the form to help us plan for next week.
Bonnie Brae December Cheer!
Hello Bonnie Brae community! We are excited to see all of our Scotties tomorrow! We have two sign-up opportunities linked below, each with awesome ways to show your support for our staff during the month of December:
In collaboration with the Bonnie Brae PTO, we have special activities and treats planned for twelve days in December to help make the month joyful for our fantastic Bonnie Brae staff, and we cannot do it without you!
Please sign-up for donations for the treats and activities!
Additionally, we are seeking donations of gift cards to use in a raffle for our wonderful teachers and staff leading up to winter break!
Please see the sign-up for gift card donations.
These are two opportunities to show how much we love and appreciate our Scottie staff. Any donation is very appreciated!
Window for Full-Time Advanced Academic Programs (AAP) Referrals Closes on December 15, 2024
Parents/guardians of students in Grades 2-7 who would like their student to be considered for Full-Time advanced academic programs may submit the AAP Full-Time Referral Form to our AART, Larissa Sheehan ltsheehan@fcps.edu no later than December 15, 2024. The window for families to submit a referral for Full-Time AAP services is the first day of school through December 15, annually. Forms for Full-Time and part-time referrals are available on the AAP Forms Page. No late referrals for Full-Time AAP services will be accepted.
Submitting a referral form for Full-Time AAP will initiate a process that begins at the local school and is then completed at the central office level. Our school will put together a portfolio that includes multiple data which are considered holistically. At the central office level, a committee of six trained professionals from various schools and roles will review the portfolio materials to determine eligibility for Full-Time placement. Eligibility decisions are communicated by early April. Parents may request a copy of the portfolio that was submitted after they have been turned in for central selection by emailing Larissa Sheehan at the above email. Referrals for Subject-Specific and Part-Time AAP are screened at the local school. If you miss this deadline, your student can still be screened for Subject-Specific AAP or Part-Time AAP for the remainder of the year and submit a referral for Full-Time AAP next fall.
For more information, please view Bonnie Brae's Full Time Services Process Overview.
