It's SPRING BREAK!!
My greatest wish is that everyone has the time and opportunity to break up with whatever germs and illnesses are currently plaguing your household! Goodness! Our attendance rate has surely taken a hit this month. Hold steady with sleep and nutrition and movement in the sunshine! Above all, INSIST that the washing of the hands be named as your family's favorite secret weapon against the crud of all shapes and sizes. It is one of the simplest acts of self-care we can do! We hope to see all of our Bulldogs back in our DAWG House on Tuesday, March 25th, ready to bark and wag! We've got a lot of ground to cover during the 4th quarter, including state assessments for 3rd-5th graders in April, and FastBridge screeners for all students in May. We are excited to come back together and finish strong!
Save the Memories with a Belmont Yearbook
It's time to pre-order your child's yearbook (totally optional purchase, of course) if you want to be guaranteed a copy at the end of the year. Although we do order a few extras to be sold on a first-come, first-served basis in May, they go quickly and we don't want anyone to get left out! Yearbooks are full color fun, $15 each, and can be purchased directly from Inter-State using either the QR code above or by visiting inter-state.com/order and entering this code: 91988W

WatchDOGS Wednesdays!!
It's a WatchDOGS revival in the Belmont DogHouse! With at least a week's notice, we'll welcome a DAD (gotta be a significant adult guardian or relation) each Wednesday to work a day at BE. There will be a schedule provided that will include a variety of tasks including building safety, academic assistance in classrooms, and logistical support during lunch, and the reward...RECESS! We guarantee you'll have the opportunity to enjoy lunch and recess with your own child(ren) and around that, we'll put you to work in the classrooms where your extra hands will be the most helpful! Do YOU have the opportunity to take a day off to hang out with about 370 beautiful children and the adults who love learning with them?

Join us!
We need MORE special people to join our Connections C team! We've been making the magic work by pulling people from their other jobs, but we would sure rather provide consistency for our students with the same staff every day. How about you? Are you pretty consistent? Do you love kids? Do you think it's pretty cool to work with other pretty cool people? We laugh. We cry. We hug it out. (To be clear...hugging is completely optional.) We celebrate. We learn and we grow. Come grow with us!
