11.1.24
As we turn the page to November next week, I want to thank each of you for the incredible work and dedication you’ve shown throughout the fall. This time of year always reminds me of the power of gratitude, and I’m genuinely grateful for the effort and compassion you bring to our schools every day. Together, we’ve created a welcoming environment for our students, and the impact is visible in their excitement to learn, connect, and grow.
With Election Day on Tuesday, November 5th, let’s remember the importance of our voices in shaping the future of our schools and community. Voting is a way to advocate for the values we believe in and for the continued success of our students.
November is also the perfect time to take stock of our goals as we approach the midpoint of the school year. Whether in the classroom, hallways or behind the scenes, every one of you plays a role in making Bellevue a place where every student feels valued and encouraged to succeed. Let’s keep that momentum going.
Thank you for everything you bring to our schools. Let’s make November a fantastic start!

Jr/Sr:
- Our PBIS Halloween event was a hit! Students who earned Bronco Tickets for demonstrating Belonging, Independence, Generosity, and Mastery were chosen to participate in the games and win prizes. Keep earning those tickets!
- Our Early Warning Indicator (EWIMS) team met on 10/30. We have HUGE celebrations! For Quarter 1, the amount of students on track with attendance, behavior, and course proficiency DOUBLED!
- Huge celebrations for our PLCs as they have been putting so much work into developing/ refining the curriculum focusing on "What do we want all students to learn" and "How do we know they learned it". This process is pertinent for our PLC data driven conversations.
