This summer was a time of milestones for our Bonita Unified students. From national recognition in the arts to learning advanced career skills, many of our students took full advantage of the summer months to further themselves academically and professionally.

 

As the 2024-25 school year gets underway, we are already witnessing our students build on these successes and continue their growth as they embrace all the new learning opportunities and activities available to them this year.

 

We are excited to welcome new additions to our leadership team this school year, including four new principals, a new assistant principal, and two new senior directors. Their fresh perspectives and passion will be invaluable as we work together to prepare our 10,000 students to live their purpose.

 

This new school year also brings exciting new avenues for student success through the introduction of a new CIF sport: girls flag football, which has been fully embraced by our female athletes at Bonita and San Dimas high schools. Both teams have experienced a strong start to the season and several players have already received offers to play for college teams. We are excited to see what other achievements will unfold during their inaugural season.

 

I would also like to take a moment to recognize the hard work of our teachers, staff, and administrators over the summer as they prepared our schools to welcome students back with open arms. From planning new and updated curriculum to ensuring our campuses are ready for a new year of learning, our employees’ commitment to student excellence is the backbone of our District.

 

As we move forward into a new school year, I am filled with optimism and excitement for what we will achieve together. The support of our community, families, and partners will continue to be a driving force in our success, and I am confident that this year will be another chapter in our story of excellence.
