Words from our Principal
This was an exciting week for BVM as we had our partial re-opening on April 12th. This is the first step towards our ultimate goal of inviting all of our students back to campus. It was great to see the smiling faces of some of our staff and students!
Next Friday is progress report day. There will be a parent progress report meeting for any parents who have questions about grades and how students can improve before the end of the year.
The district will be sending out a communication very soon about 8th grade promotion. I know many of you are anxiously awaiting the dates so you can make your plans. BVM promotion will be on a different day than the BVH graduation, so you won't have to worry about being in two places at once if you have an 8th grader and a senior. BVM promotion will take place the week of June 1st.
The BVM PTSA has a Facebook page for parents to follow with announcements, fundraisers, and 8th grade yard signs. Follow Bonita Vista Middle PTSA for all parents announcements. And make sure you download the FREE Bonita Vista Middle App for important information and notifications.
I hope you all have a wonderful weekend and continue to stay safe and healthy! It seems like the world is opening back up a little bit. Continue to wear your masks, social distance and wash your hands to keep the people of our beautiful community safe.
Sincerely,
Teresa Kramer
Principal
