Welcome to the official, non-profit website created for the boys and girls of the former Bonny Oaks School in Chattanooga, Tennessee.

Hi, I am Christine Haven, your Webmaster. You can always find me at texasbonny@yahoo.com
It is the intention of this website to give the former children of the Bonny Oaks School and Vine Street Children's Home an avenue to help visit their past and hopefully renew old friendships. No matter how or why we arrived at the homes, we were there as children, and share that common bond.

Please use your website for the outlet it was intended and enjoy its pages.

SPECIAL RECOGNITION to Jesse and Pauline Presley for submitting their personal photo albums from their Bonny Oaks years.  All the sports pictures and related newspaper articles, student's group photos on the "Photo Albums" page, staff members pictures and at least 80% of the Acorns bulletins were submitted by them.  I hope the pictures will bring back lots of fun memories to you.  If it does, why not drop them a line to let them know.

Please visit your website often as alumni signups could change daily.

True to our country's heritage, true to our Bonny Oaks home, we said the Pledge of Allegiance at school on campus every day:

"I Pledge Allegiance to the Flag
of the United States of America
and to the Republic, for which it stands
One Nation Under God,
Indivisible, with Liberty and Justice
for All."
