Bunche Elementary School

Welcome to the homepage of Bunche Elementary School, the home of the Bears. The school is named after Ralph Bunche, a political scientist, academic, and diplomat who, in 1950, became the first African American to win the Nobel Peace Prize. At Bunche, we exist to educate the whole child which encompasses the social, emotional, physical and academic needs of the Bunch students in order to create successful and productive citizens. Our students participate and show excellence every day. We are respectful, responsible, and safe. We're excited to be a part of the REACH Network.
