Hawk Highlights
December 2022
IMPORTANT REMINDER
We've seen an increase in students arriving to school late. It is very important that your child consistently arrives to school on time. There are numerous benefits of arriving to school on time. Some of the benefits for students include: time socialize and make stronger connections with their peers and teachers; routines are established so the day can flow better; a sense of calm (less anxiety); and strong academic achievement. The first bell rings at 7:55 a.m. and the final bell is at 8:00 a.m.. Students arriving after 8:00 a.m. will be marked tardy. Please strive to have your child to school on time.

Bellevue Elementary School-Wide Expectations
These school-wide expectations are an essential part of our school’s culture. They help create a common language for teaching, reinforcing, and recognizing positive student actions throughout the school.
