Measure L: Bonny Doon Community Bond 2024

Community Update October 2026

Measure L improvements continue to take shape across campus, with work progressing both outdoors and inside several classroom buildings. As crews move through different areas of campus, the project team continues to coordinate closely with school staff to maintain safe access and minimize impacts to students and staff.

Work underway and coming up includes:

  • Upper and lower campus improvements: Trenching continues through the lower campus, with temporary trench plates being used as needed to maintain safe student crossings. On the upper campus, final grading is underway as crews prepare for the next phase of improvements. 
  • Storm drain and concrete work: Storm drain improvements are scheduled to begin, followed by concrete work in several areas. This includes continued preparation for new ramps, walkways and other hardscape improvements around campus. 
  • Classroom modernization: Improvements continue in Buildings A, B and C, where crews are working on classroom walls and interior spaces and making upgrades to the fire alarm system. These spaces are beginning to take shape as modernization work moves forward
  • Generator area: Crews continue preparing the generator pad, including additional compaction and testing before moving into the next stages of construction.

As construction moves into new areas, students, staff and visitors may notice temporary changes to pathways and access around campus. The construction team will continue to use signage, fencing and temporary crossings to help everyone safely navigate active work areas.

We appreciate the continued patience and flexibility of our students, families, teachers and staff as this work progresses. Each week brings us another step closer to completing these important Measure L improvements for the Bonny Doon school community.

Community Update September 2025

It’s hard to believe we are already two months into the school year. Time really does fly when there is so much happening at Bonny Doon Union Elementary School District. 

Since the spring and summer, we’ve been hard at work making improvements to Bonny Doon Elementary School. We repaired plumbing, replaced the roof on the upper campus and Room 2, and completed important topographic and geological surveys to ensure our grounds are ready for future projects. We also finalized a site improvement plan set for summer 2026, carefully scheduled so classroom instruction won’t be disrupted during the school year. To read the full update, click here.

BDUESD Facilities Master Plan (FMP) Community Vision

In the Spring of 2024, Bonny Doon School District hired experts from Stacked, an architectural and engineering firm, to create a new multi-year Facilities Master Plan (FMP). They undertook an analysis of the status of the current school buildings, campus and community facilities and through multiple meetings gathered input and ideas from key stakeholders; staff, teachers, parents and community leaders. 

The new FMP includes updates and improvements for the school buildings, the school campus and also the facilities available to and used by the wider resident community. View of a summary of the FMP.
