Bonsall Virtual Academy 1/31/2025

Hello BVA families!

This week was a busy one as we welcomed new students to our family and went on a fantastic field trip to the Fleet Science Museum in beautiful Balboa Park. We experienced the hands-on exhibits, attended a terrific Forensics class and enjoyed a picnic lunch. Thank you to all of our parent chaperones for your support!

Congratulations to three of our ten seniors for being selected for the Valedictory circle. These top students have maintained a cumulative 3.5 g.p.a. or higher for four years. Congratulations to Sophie Lawler-Ehr, Maritza Villanueva and Jolie Kennedy!

We have our next art day with Carissa scheduled for Wednesday, February 12th at 10:30. We hope you can join us and stay for a school lunch.

The month of February we will be bringing some 'love' to one of our community members, The Fallbrook Animal Sanctuary. Please help us to get donations of cat/dog food, gently used blankets, pet carriers, leashes, collars, etc. We will conduct the supply drive for the month of February.

Please take a moment each week to review upcoming lessons with your child and help them set reasonable goals in each of their classes. This simple step can lead to great outcomes by having a laser focus on improving by just 1%.

See below for additional tips and ideas for kicking the new year off!

We will have two solid weeks of students hard work before we have a week off for the President's break. The week of February 17th-21st, there will be no school. If your child is behind in any classes, have them use this valuable gift of time to get caught up so they can finish the second semester strong!

Reminder:

Students who are on track in their classes, attend their daily or weekly zoom and come in person can earn raffle tickets. Every week, we draw raffle tickets for the elementary and middle/high school students. Students can select raffle prizes from the prize box, get free Nessy burger items such as shakes, fries, and burgers, Starbucks gift cards or Target giftcards. Our student shout out section below will have our raffle winners listed.

Reminder:

Students are able to come in-person to work and receive support from our very talented staff between 8:30-3:00 M-F. Students can come for a short period of time or stay longer. We do have access to the hot lunch program. We also have snacks. Please have your child bring their refillable water bottle to use during the day to drink refreshing, ice cold water from our Sparklett's tank.

Florida center for reading resources is a collection of research based/teacher created Student Center Activities for use in pre-kindergarten through fifth grade classrooms. The activities are designed for students to practice, demonstrate, and extend their learning of what has already been taught, sometimes with teacher assistance and sometimes independently. Students can complete the activities in small groups, pairs, or individually.

Accompanying these Student Center Activities is a Teacher Resource Guide that offers important insights on differentiated instruction and how to use the Student Center materials.
