Parent Portal Sign-up-
Parents, if you did not have a chance to sign up for the Infinite Campus Parent Portal yet, please be sure to stop by the school office to get this done. Our goal is to have 100% of our families signed up by Thanksgiving Break. This will give you access to your child’s attendance and will also be used to communicate your child’s report card.

Giving Assembly- In the spirit of community and compassion that defines Old Bonhomme School, we invite you to participate in the 29th Annual Giving Assembly. This year’s
Giving Assembly will be held on Tuesday, November 26, at 9:30a.m. This is an opportunity for Old
Bonhomme families to donate canned goods, books and school supplies, gently used clothing, baby
supplies, and toys. Local charities such as Family Haven (a shelter of the Salvation Army), KidSmart,
Crisis Nursery, and Trinity Food Pantry will receive your donations. Please send your donations to
school with your student on November 18-25. Adult volunteers are needed those mornings from
8:45-9:30a.m. to assist with sorting and boxing the donations. Volunteer signup sheets and more
information will come home in backpacks next week. Please contact Michelle Hawkins with questions
(993-5090 or hawkinsm@charter.net). This is an OBPTO sponsored activity.
PTO NEWS- Thank you to everyone who came to Bowling for Bonhomme last weekend. We raised over $18,000 to support the activities of the OBPTO! From Arts Partners Assemblies to Mini-Grants for teachers, your support helps the PTO help our school.
Special thanks to Suzanne Epstein-Lang and her fabulous committee for all of their hard work!!! More information will be coming out soon about sign up parties that remain open.
Also, thank you to Kelly Becker and her committee for providing delicious dinner and desserts to teachers during conferences this week.
First Grade Musical Date Change- Please note that First Grade Musical has been moved to April 1, 2014. We apologize for the change but need to accommodate the recently
scheduled All District Choral Concert that includes our Show Choir and Mr. Hearn.
DOGS at Arrival and Dismissal - Some concerns have been expressed about children who are nervous around large and small dogs especially if the dogs start to bark at one another. It can be
quite scary for some children. We love to see our parents walking to and from school with their children but if you are going to walk with your dog to pick up or drop off your child at school, please stay on the grass area by the public sidewalk near the upper blacktop or outside the library at the side of the school. Thanks for your cooperation!
Cell Phone Use- Parents, just a reminder to please refrain from cell phone use in the school. If you must take a call you can step outside and the office will be happy to help you when your call is completed. Thank you.
