Open House and Upcoming PTO Events

Our Open House on the 20th was a success! Thanks to the families who attended and came to meet their child's' teacher, tour the school, pick handfuls of free books, and learn about upcoming events! We had a great time meeting new families and letting the students share their favorite things about their classroom and teachers.

Jim Leslie from United Way opened the night and spoke to the crowd about the United Way Promise Progam.

Teachers Excited and Ready for New Year

What do teachers do over the summer? They prepare for the next school year! Our teachers at Bon Air are licensed educators who strive to improve their abilities and continually seek opportunities for ongoing career and professional developemt.

Over the summer our teaching staff met together with Petitt Park Elementary staff for PD in Pajamas. We met new teachers, collaborated on grade level curriculum, planned ideas for the upcoming school year,.....all while having a ton of fun!

A group of us from Kokomo Schools traveled this summer to Atlanta. Georgia, where we attended the Model Schools Conference. We heard from nationally known speakers and leaders in the education field and we built relationships with teachers from all over the country. Together our team focused on ways we can continue to engage our students throughout the school year. We came back to Indiana excited to push forward with many of our ideas!!

Teachers never stop learning!!!

Welcome Back Bon Air Families

We are excited and blessed to welcome 376 elementary students back into our building. You could feel the excitement as students unboarded busses, ran to meet their teacher, and high-fived old friends.

Bon Air has three new teachers this year. Ms. Armstrong and Ms. Huffman will be teaching first grade and Ms. Stickles will be teaching fourth grade ! We also brought our fifth grade classrooms back to the elementary side of the building so we are all together on one wing. You will notice some classrooms have changed locations so watch for the new building directories next time you visit.

We look forward to a successful year together.
