Bellerive Bulletin

Dear Bellerive Families,

Thank you to everyone who joined us for Family Movie Night! We had a fantastic turnout, and it was wonderful to see so many families come together for an evening of fun. A big thanks to our PTO for sponsoring the event and providing popcorn and drinks.

As we head into Thanksgiving break, I want to express how grateful I am for our amazing students and supportive families. Bellerive truly is a wonderful community, and I feel fortunate to be a part of it. Enjoy the break and have a happy Thanksgiving!

In partnership,

Joey Kneer

No School (Thanksgiving Break): November 27 - 29

We want to remind all families to be mindful of our neighbors during dismissal. Recently, some cars have been blocking driveways while waiting in the pickup line, which is frustrating to our neighbors. Please ensure that driveways remain clear during dismissal. Thank you for your cooperation in keeping our dismissal process respectful and smooth!

Winter weather is with us! Please help your child remember to dress for the cooler temperatures by wearing coats, hats, gloves, etc. to school each day so everyone is prepared for recess, arrival, and dismissal times.

Absentee/Retake Picture Day is Tuesday, December 3rd. Wagner Portrait Group will be at school to photograph any students who were absent on the initial picture day or any student that needs his/her picture retaken.

If you are having a picture taken as a RETAKE, please make sure your student returns their package in its entirety, including the package insert sheet, to the photographer on retake day. (Feel free to attach a note to describe what you’d like Wagner to do differently.)

If you have questions about ordering pictures, please call Wagner at 314-567-5900.

We need your participation! We would love to have representation from ALL types of cultures! Ideas from the past include, but are not limited to: different countries, American Culture, St. Louis Culture, Autism, Deaf and Hard of Hearing, etc. You can host a table as a family or partner up with other families. You are welcome to bring in food, games, pictures, clothing, music, activities, crafts, etc. to share with our Bellerive community. Click here for planning sheets and pictures from past events for some inspiration!
