Before Mrs. Gochis left for her maternity leave, she collected digital images of TONS of artwork by our Bulldogs so that she could share it with you tonight! We have a slideshow presentation that will be playing on the big screens in the cafeteria, gym, and most of the pods. Please stop to take it all in while you're enjoying your stroll through learning this evening!

There will be something to see or do in almost every area of the school this evening!

Front Lobby: 5th grade Taco Trucks and the Kinder/Fifth Lemonade Stand Project

Gym: 5th grade Career Projects

Outside the gym: 4th grade bubble wands and Egg Contraption Drop Off and Drop Testing

To help protect our students' work, please keep your children with you and make sure that care is taken to view or use materials as intended. Thank you!

We WILL be THROWING EGGS OFF THE ROOF!! Okay technically, only Mrs. Hargrove will be on the roof, and the goal is that no eggs be harmed in the process. Students are encouraged to design and build an egg transport device that will protect a raw egg from breaking when gently dropped from the roof of the cafeteria. The egg should be safely tucked inside the device when you arrive, so please provide that from home! Devices should be labeled with student's name and be brought to the lift site just outside the south gym doors on May 3rd prior to launch time (7:00ish) Any devices utilizing peanut butter will need to be placed in the correctly labeled bin and will be launched last for safety.

We WILL be shopping at the BOOK FAIR! Our cafeteria will transform into a massive book store! Please, note that the book fair is cash-free. Credit or debit cards are welcome, or follow the directions below to create an eWallet. Volunteers needed! Click here if you love books and could help for a bit! The book fair opens in the cafeteria at 6:00pm and you'll need to be in line to check out by 7:30! We're packing it up at 8!

Ms. Loftus and Mrs. Foster have had their kindergarten and 5th grade students teamed up to design an actual business! They have been working hard and will be ready to serve customers this evening from 6:00-7:30pm in the front lobby. Regular or Pink Lemonade will be available for $1. Cash, please.

We WILL be celebrating with FOOD TRUCKS! Dolelicious and Burritos Lagos will be in the west loop, ready to serve about 5:30. We will set up some tables in the gym for your dining pleasure- thanks for helping us bus those tables when your family is finished eating!

All returning Bulldog families must visit your child's Skyward Family Access account where you will be directed to complete enrollment forms for next year. We don't need your money until after the system rollover in July, so that's a bonus!! We do need to have the most current enrollment, health, immunization, transportation...you know...all of that stuff! The system will prompt you through the steps. If your family has planned a move and will be attending elsewhere next year, please let the office know so that we be prepared to send student records when requested by their new school.

All enrollment information for new students (just in case you found our newsletter and are wondering how to become a Belmont Bulldog!) may be found by following this link.
