Digital Resource Consent

At Bonnie Brae Elementary, our teachers will use a variety of digital resources to support student learning and promote communication and collaboration with students and families. Some of the digital resources your child may use this year will require your consent before they can be used. View Fairfax County Public Schools' list of Elementary Digital Resources that require parental consent.

Included on this same webpage is a link to the Parent Digital Consent Application.  This is where the enrolling parent or guardian will need to indicate whether or not their student is allowed to use the list of digital resources this year.

This page also provides more information about how FCPS carefully reviews digital resources for approval and why we must request your consent before using certain tools. We encourage you to complete the parental consent for digital resources form as soon as possible, as your child will not be able to use the digital resources until we have received your permission. Please reach out to the school if you have questions or concerns about the digital resources we’ve chosen to use this year.

To provide your parental consent for each student in your family, please follow this link and follow the provided directions.

Student Rights & Responsibilities 

The 2023-2024 Student Rights and Responsibilities (found on the FCPS SR&R webpage) explains expectations for student behavior and adult responses to enhance school safety and to create a fair, equitable and supportive school environment (translated versions available). We ask that you use this document as a framework for discussing these expectations with your child or teen so that he or she is well prepared for success when the school year begins. You will also find that this publication includes information that you may need throughout the school year, including contact numbers and other resources.

All students in FCPS should review the Student Rights and Responsibilities.

• Review the Student Rights and Responsibilities and related resources on the FCPS SR&R webpage
• After reviewing the information, fill out the SR&R Acknowledgment Form
  • The form must be filled out for each child/student in grades K-6 in the household digitally or on paper
  • Parent/Guardians can acknowledge receipt of the SR&R in ParentVue in your child’s SIS account or sign the Parent Signature Sheet (will link once updated from the county) to acknowledge that you have received this document. Please e-sign through ParentVue or return the signed signature sheet to your child's school by September 30, 2023.

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 BBES Kiss and Ride Form. Returning and new Kiss and Riders will receive new tags prior to students returning.
