The Bolden Bugle Newsletter
Dear Bolden Elementary Middle School Family and Staff,
At Bolden Elementary Middle School, our vision is to increase student performance by inspiring curiosity and the love of learning in all students. We also know that students achieve their best at school in safe and supportive environments, where they are free from bullying and disruptive behavior.
At our school, there is a big emphasis on making sure we provide a happy and safe environment for our students, including one that is free from bullying. Unfortunately, we know that it can happen anywhere, anytime, and can have devastating consequences.
 The best way to tackle bullying is for schools, students, and parents to work together.Â
Our school is committed to preventing bullying, of all kinds, and educating students and staff on the warning signs of bullying as well as preventive measures. The school counselor has, and will continue, to provide students with the skills needed to combat bullying.Â
If a student believes they or a peer has been the victim of bullying, they should report the situation to a teacher, counselor, school administrator, student resource officer, or another trusted adult. Parents can also report the situation directly to the school counselor or administrator. I encourage you to learn more by visiting the following website for more information on bullying.Â
Thank you for your continued support of our school and rest assured student safety is our number one concern.Â
Dr. Angela M. Stephens
Principal

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.Â
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.
Student Contact Information: Please notify the office if you have any new phone numbers (home, work, cell), or if you no longer use a number previously listed with the school. It is important to us that your child’s contact information is current for their teachers, school nurse, and principal. We also want to ensure that you receive all messages sent to Bolden families through the Everbridge notification system.
