Hello Bonsall West parents!

This has been another fun week!

Our 5th graders shared their state reports, our 6th graders went off to Camp Cuyamaca and we had our whole school musical performance thanks to Mrs. Pellkofer , our music teacher on Wednesday and Thursday! Our 5th graders went to Rawhide Ranch this week for three days. Our 4th graders performed in their play and did an outstanding job! Our first graders had a fantastic picnic lunch with their students!

Summer intervention and classes:

BUSD is offering a variety of summer learning, enrichment programs, and intersessional days June 12th-30th at school sites. Flyers will be coming out this weekend with more details but families may sign up for summer learning, enrichment courses, and intersessional days with the Boys and Girls Club. Some BUSD families have already been contacted about participating in the summer learning courses with BUSD teachers and they will be automatically registered through 6Crickets. Students who register for intersessional days at BES may also attend enrichment classes at BES in the morning, regardless of what school they attend. Please check your email and PeachJar flyers for more details coming shortly.

All of these programs will begin registration Monday, May 29th, through the 6Crickets portal: BUSD & 6Crickets Portal . Don't wait, registration will fill up fast!

In addition, if your child will be leaving early during the school day for an appointment, please email your child's teacher and call ahead to the office so your child will be ready for you when you arrive.
