Our first full week of school is officially in the books, and what a wonderful week it has been at Beulah Park Elementary!

Our hallways have been filled with smiling faces, new friendships, learning, and lots of Bulldog spirit. Our students are settling into their classrooms and learning our school routines and expectations. Our teachers and staff have worked incredibly hard to make sure every Bulldog feels safe, welcomed, supported, and ready to learn.

Thank you, families, for helping make our first week a success. Your partnership makes a difference!

First Grade Field Trip – Apple Holler

Our first graders will be heading to Apple Holler for a fun day of learning and exploration!

Additional field trip information will be shared with our first-grade families.

Our Bulldogs worked hard this week on their NWEA MAP assessments! Students completed MAP testing on Tuesday and Wednesday, and we are proud of the effort and focus they demonstrated.

If your child was absent or was unable to complete testing, make-up testing will continue through Thursday, September 3, 2026.

Thank you for making sure your child gets plenty of rest and arrives at school ready to learn!

As the school year gets underway, we are already seeing lots of jackets, backpacks, lunch boxes, and other belongings throughout the building.

Please put your child's first and last name on ALL of their belongings.

This includes:

🎒 Backpacks

🍎 Lunch boxes

🧥 Jackets and sweatshirts

📚 School materials and personal items

Clearly labeled belongings make it much easier for us to return lost items to their Bulldog!

The first few weeks of school are all about building routines. Please take a few minutes at home to talk with your child about:

Being Safe.

Being Respectful.

Being Responsible.

We are working hard at school to establish consistent routines and expectations, and your reinforcement at home is incredibly helpful.

A huge thank you to our Bulldog families for your patience and cooperation during arrival and dismissal!

We appreciate everyone who is waiting in their vehicle for both drop-off and pick-up. Your cooperation is helping us keep our students safe and our traffic moving efficiently. We are happy to report that the pick-up line is moving faster each and every day!

Please continue to remain in your vehicle and follow the directions of our staff members. We appreciate your partnership as we work together to make arrival and dismissal safe and smooth for everyone.

Families of students who ride the bus, please make sure that an adult is at the bus stop to receive your child when they arrive home.

Thank you for helping us ensure that every Bulldog gets home safely!

We appreciate your patience, cooperation, and support!

Thank you for your patience, support, and partnership as we begin this new school year together. We are so proud of our Bulldogs and excited about the year ahead!

Here's to a fantastic school year!
