Dear Bel Aire Families,We began this week with a whole school Monday Morning Meet to celebrate birthdays, review recess behavior, learn how to sort our lunch waste properly, and sing the Bel Aire school song. Monday mornings are the perfect time to welcome students together with peers and build school community.
Time has been flying by and the week's almost over! Students are settling into their daily routines and there's already evidence of learning in all classrooms. Bel Aire teachers have been creating welcoming, safe places for your students to learn and grow. I can't wait for you to come see for yourselves at our Back to School Night on September 8th.
I encourage you to look through the Bel Aire Family Handbook linked below. Bel Aire site leadership has reviewed and updated the information and it's helpful for you and your family to know.
Thank you to all of the parent volunteers that have been helping with lunch--we couldn't do it without you, Bel Aire PTA!
Breakfast/Lunch Program Update: Please read this important message from our superintendent.
Thank you and have a great evening!
