Dear West Belmar Families,

As winter arrives and the holiday season fills the air with cheer, we would like to extend our warmest wishes to all of our West Belmar families. This special time of year is perfect for reflecting on the past year, celebrating moments big and small, and enjoying time with family and friends.

Thank you for the continued support, dedication, and kindness that make our school community such a joyful place to learn and grow. We are truly grateful for each of you.

May your holidays be filled with laughter, warmth, and treasured memories. Please stay safe, enjoy the season, and we look forward to welcoming everyone back in the new year!

Happy Holidays from all of us at West Belmar!

Attendance Matters at the WB!

Why Every Day Matters

Good attendance lays the foundation for a child’s academic success. When students attend school regularly, they keep up with class lessons, build confidence, and develop strong relationships with teachers and peers. Even just two absences per month (about 10% of the school year) can create gaps in learning and make it harder to catch up. We encourage families to make every effort to have students present and on time, because every day really does add up. We need our "Bear Cubs in the Cave"!
