We will be bulk ordering school supplies for all students again for the 2024-25 school year!

Here's how it works:

• We bulk purchase supplies that have traditionally been on a class supply list for every student.

• By purchasing in bulk, our per student cost will be $30 per student, where the same items would cost a family $60-90 per student at retail stores.

• Please send whatever portion of that $30 is possible for your family. Because we are providing supplies for all students regardless of their ability to pay, if your family can contribute more than $30, it would go a long way to supporting students at Bellview whose families may be struggling right now.

• We are able to reduce the overall cost to families by $10 for next year because we saved student headphones purchased last year.

Additional benefits of this plan:

• Saves money for all families by using bulk purchasing

• Eliminates the hassle of having to go to multiple stores to find the correct items

• Allows teachers to organize and prepare supplies before school starts so that the first days of school can dive right in to the fun and learning (and you don't have to lug three grocery bags on the first day of school!)

We know the Bellview community is so supportive of all kids at our school and so appreciate everything you do to support making our learning environment the best it can possibly be!

Students will still need to bring their own water bottle, back pack, and lunch box if they are a cold luncher.

There are several options for getting us the $30 before school begins (or after!):

• Bring cash or check in to the school office after August 5 between 7:30-4:00 Monday through Friday

• Send to school with your student after school starts August 26th

• Call Meg at 541-482-1310 to pay by card over the phone, or stop in during office hours (After August 5)

How To Become a Volunteer:

Step 1:
Complete the Volunteer Registration Form, which includes the Notice of Background Check form.

Once completed, please submit the forms and a copy of your driver’s license to the Office Manager of the school where the volunteer position is needed. Forms may also be mailed or faxed to the school office. If no school is specified, forms may be submitted to 885 Siskiyou Blvd., Ashland, OR 97520.
Once you have passed your background check, you are cleared to apply to volunteer for any position throughout the school year. No additional background check is necessary, however, it is necessary to repeat this process each school year.

Step 2:
Mark your calendar with the agreed upon days and times. Please note that certain positions require training and a time commitment. Make sure you can fulfill the volunteer commitments before agreeing to the position.

Be prompt and dependable. Call ahead if you are ill or unable to keep your appointed times. When you commit to volunteering, people are depending on you.
