From the Principal
Parents,
Thank you so much for another great week at Belton Elementary. You have awesome kids!!
On Tuesday, we will be starting "One School, One Book". Your child will be coming home with a book called Stella. We are encouraging all of our students to read one chapter a night. We would love for you to be involved in this! You can read it to them, take turns reading, or let them read it to you. We will be sending out more information on Tuesday.
As a reminder, your $20 school fees are due September 3. You can send cash, check, or pay on myschoolbucks.com.
If myself or Mrs. Lance can ever be of any assistance, please don't hesitate to reach out to us.
Have a fantastic weekend!
Mr. Fowler

Progress Reports - Tuesday
Progress reports go home this Tuesday through Parent Portal. If you need help gaining access to this, please call our office or stop by so we can help you get logged in!
Reminders
Transportation Change
You must call the office if you need to change the transportation for how your child normally gets home. Messaging the teacher on Class Dojo will not work because teachers will most likely not see your message until students are already gone.
Breakfast
If your child is a car rider and would like to eat breakfast at school, please be sure to get them to school as early as possible to give them plenty of time to eat. The hot breakfast line ends at 7:35am. I would suggest getting your child to school before 7:30am to ensure they are getting a hot breakfast, and are not rushed.
Tardy Bell
The tardy bell will ring at 7:45am. Students must be in their classroom by 7:45am in order to not be tardy. Parents must park and walk their child in if they are tardy.
Early Dismissal
Students will not be allowed to be dismissed from class after 2:00pm without administrator approval. Please plan doctor appointments accordingly.
Free Lunch
Breakfast and Lunch are free for all of our students this year!
