Hello Scottie Families!
What a week! What a year! We had such a great final week of the year, from class celebrations to our 6th grade promotion. We are grateful to all of the parents and staff who supported these special events, which led to a fun-filled last few days of the year.
As we finish another amazing year at Bonnie Brae, we wanted to take a moment to express our heartfelt gratitude and admiration for all of our families. It has been a year filled with joyful learning and success, and we thank you for your partnership in your children's education.
Have a wonderful summer, and enjoy the time with your family. Go Scotties!
