Summer News Letter
Bellmawr Public Schools Superintendent Update
Success...
We have had another successful academic year chock full of learning experiences and fun filled activities for our students. I am thankful for a caring, expert staff who comes to work each day to serve our students and their families. I wish each of you a wonderful and relaxing summer I look forward to seeing the teachers on August 31 for professional development and the students on September 6, 2016, their first day of school for them.
Farewell to the Class of 2016
We say good bye and good luck to 115 8th grade students as they leave our learning community. They are going to a variety of high schools: 6 to CCTS, 1 to Bishop Eustace, 7 to Gloucester Catholic, 6 to Audubon High, 2 to Paul VI the rest going to Triton High School where they thrive. Please note that Ryma Choudry and Zachary Billingham who both graduates of the Bell Oaks Upper Elementary School were named the Valedictorians for Triton’s 2016 Senior class.! AWESOME WORK!

Bellmawr Summer Camp
School Summer Camp will begin on July 5th. The last day of camp will be August 4th. The day begins at 8:00 Monday to Thursday each week with a 2:00 dismissal. Our teacher directors, Mrs. Krapf and Mr. Harper have been working hard with our teachers to plan exciting and theme based weekly activities for our campers, who will be singing, dancing, constructing and learning each day. All campers will receive breakfast and lunch at no cost to them or to the District courtesy of the South Jersey Food Bank.

PTO United
The three parent teacher organizations from each of the district schools are joining forces to create one district parent teacher group. The purpose of this activity is to bring all of our fundraising efforts under one umbrella maximizing our efforts and interests. Parents, board members, teachers and administrators have met 3 times so far to work out the details. Until we create by laws we are calling the group The Bellmawr Learning Community Parent Teacher Organization. The District is in the process of creating a Facebook and webpage for this organization which will be updated with our progress. All are invited and encouraged to attend the next meeting which will be held July 6, 2016 at 4:00 in the Bell Oaks Media Center. I realize this is early for many people who work but due to summer hours the Bell Oaks School closes earlier than we are used to and experience has shown that the meetings last approximately two hours. Information will be posted to Facebook.
Thank you for your continued support,
