Belmont Elementary: A PAWSitive Place to Learn!
We Feel the LoVe and Thank You Kindly for your Generous Support!
Thank you so much for showering our team with love this week for Team Appreciation Week!
Belmont Field Day is May 22 and it will be OLYMPIC!
Woohoo!! Field day is Wednesday, May 22nd for literally the entire school!
3rd, 4th and 5th graders will participate in field day rotations from 9:00-11:30. Kindergarten, 1st and 2nd graders will participate in field day rotations primarily led by the 5th graders from 12:30-3:00. Then, all Kindergarten through 5th grade will participate in our traditional Tug-o-War at 3:00.
Important info:
- Sunscreen and water bottles are SUPER GREAT IDEAS!! Please apply!
- Dress for success- old clothes and tennis shoes rule! Hats are a good idea, too!
- You might think about sending a second pair of socks and shoes to change into after playing in case the field is still wet in the morning. And a bag. They might need a bag to put those in. Phew!
- K-5 STUDENT LUNCH OPTIONS:
- Send an individual sack lunch from home!
- Or if preferred, pre-order sack lunch from school by May 20th by emailing abeach@usd232.org. The lunch will include a Jammy Sammy, cheese stick, Goldfish crackers, baby carrots with ranch, frozen juice cup and milk. We have limited supplies available from the vendors at this time of the year, so order soon if needed! We appreciate it!
- Parents will not be able to join their children for lunch on field day as we'll all be eating at the same time in classrooms and we can't accommodate so many extra bodies.
- Who can attend? Only adults are allowed on the field with Belmont Bulldogs participating in field day. No siblings will be allowed to join in activities or go past a marked spectator zone. We STRONGLY encourage parents to find a sitter for siblings on field day so that they can freely volunteer or participate with their school-agers during the events of the day. It's FUN!! If that's not possible for you and you want to stop by to watch from the sidelines for a bit, there will be a spectator zone, but I can't guarantee that all events will be easily view-able from the site. Yes, indeed, the spectator zone will be in full view of the tug-o-war site at the end of the day.
- VOLUNTEERS are welcome! Adults only! PLEASE, MAKE SURE THAT YOU ARE SIGNING UP FOR THE TIME WHEN YOUR CHILD WILL BE PARTICIPATING IN FIELD DAY ACTIVITIES. 3rd-5th graders participate in the morning and Kdg-2nd graders participate in the afternoon. Directions for each activity will be printed on the back of each station sign. Mrs. Koester will also make the rounds to help demo or explain details.
- Parents may also travel with their child's class and help out at each station.
2024-2025 ENROLLMENT is Open
All returning Bulldog families must visit your child's Skyward Family Access account where you will be directed to complete enrollment forms for next year. We don't need your money until after the system rollover in July, so that's a bonus!! We do need to have the most current enrollment, health, immunization, transportation...you know...all of that stuff! The system will prompt you through the steps. If your family has planned a move and will be attending elsewhere next year, please let the office know so that we be prepared to send student records when requested by their new school.
All enrollment information for new students (just in case you found our newsletter and are wondering how to become a Belmont Bulldog!) may be found by following this link.
