Front Office Information

A New Front Office Email Address

We are pleased to announce that a new email address has been established to facilitate communication between families and the school. The email address is boldenfrontoffice@dodea.edu

This email will serve as the primary channel for parents and sponsor to communicate attendance-related matters, including notifying us when a student will be absent for the day or if there are emergency dismissal changes.

Important Points:
Email Address: Please use the provided email address (boldenfrontoffice@dodea.edu) when sending attendance notes or dismissal change requests. It is crucial that both the child’s homeroom teacher and the front office receive your email.

Dismissal Changes: To ensure safety and security, we will not accept dismissal changes after 2:30 p.m. If you need to make any permanent transportation or dismissal changes, please complete the required form. You can obtain the form by visiting the school front office or requesting it to be sent home.

Email Format for Dismissal Changes: When emailing a dismissal change, please include the following details:
* Child’s full name
* Your name (parent/sponsor)
* Homeroom teacher’s name
* Specific dismissal changes for that day

Classroom Questions and Concerns: While this email address is primarily for attendance and dismissal matters, if you have specific classroom-related questions or concerns, we encourage you to directly email the teacher responsible for your child’s class. Thank you for your cooperation, and we look forward to maintaining effective communication with our school community.

A note from the principal

Thank you to our Teachers!
I just want to take a moment to say thanks! Our
school is a community of people working together to
educate students in a safe and happy environment. At
Bolden, we strive to increase student performance by
inspiring curiosity and the love of learning in all students.
Every single teacher is appreciated and I thank
you for all you do! “Teachers open our eyes to the
world. They give us curiosity and confidence. They
teach us to ask questions. They connect us to our past
and future.” I know that teaching is often a difficult
but rewarding job, and I truly appreciate all of the
time, energy, and loving care you dedicate to our children.
Angela M. Stephens, Ed.D.

GO EAGLES!!
