Principal's Corner
Happy Fall Bell Manor Family! The first six weeks is under our belt and we have settled into our classroom routines. I have to admit that one of my favorite parts of the day is waving to families and welcoming students into the building each morning. Teachers are also eagerly greeting students into their classrooms each morning. It is so important that we start the day off with these positive routines. Thank you for supporting us in this effort and sending them to school ready to learn. Please know the safety of your child is our number one priority. For the safety and security of our students, please do not drop students off in the morning before 7:15 am. Thank you for a great first six weeks!
