Bonny Doon Union Elementary School District Home

PG&E has once again announced a likely Public Safety Power Shutoff (PSPS) for Sunday, Oct. 25, lasting until Tuesday, Oct. 27. Since the last announcement, we have taken steps to ensure the continuity of our instructional program. Class meetings and Monday's pick-up parade will continue as scheduled.

Thursday is a school day, and attendance will be verified through student work completion for the day since student access to class meetings may be impacted. There is no school Friday, October 16 as it is a scheduled Staff Development Day.

We have recently been notified by our local health authorities that COVID-19 cases are again on the rise in Santa Cruz County. We anticipate that we will move to a more restrictive Widespread (purple) level in the coming weeks under the Governor’s Blueprint for a Safer Economy. Our public schools continue to proceed carefully regarding all decisions regarding reopening for in-person instruction because we recognize these increases in transmission rates could put our students and staff at risk.

I hope this week’s communication finds each of you and your family finding some comfort. Attached are some brief progress updates about our recovery efforts following the fire.

Since no one filed a Declaration of Candidacy to fill this seat at the November 3, 2020 Election, Education Code 5326 provides the authority for the school board to appoint someone to fill positions where no one has filed.

Dear Bonny Doon School Family and Friends, If you missed last night's Town Hall meeting, the recording is available for you.
