Belmont Elementary: A PAWSitive Place to Learn!
Read with BE!
We LOVE reading at BE! Every person on our team has grown into a reader at some age or another. So we're excited to share our love of reading with your children through our new endeavor- Read with BE! Our goal will be to post a new read aloud to our Read with BE! page found under the FAMILY tab on our website most Fridays. Then whenever your child is looking for a new book to enjoy, perhaps they'll find it fun to explore a book with one of our team members. Everyone gets to pick their own favorite to share, so hopefully throughout the year, you'll find some new favorites, too.
To kick off the fun, here's a favorite from Mrs. Stiles, our Belmont Technology Teacher. She's sharing a read aloud she did last fall, but the message that we are all worthy and our dreams, and the effort we apply toward our goals, can erupt into powerful life changing moments, is a valuable reminder to all of us at any time. Please enjoy, Grace for President, written by Kelly DiPucchio, and read by Mrs. Stiles.
Food Truck Update: Taco Via will also be here on Wednesday from 5-7 PM. Yes! You are welcome to tell your neighbors!
We're Looking Forward to Seeing You During Conferences
Quick reminder that all persons over the age of 2 who will be entering the building for conferences (or to visit the Book Fair) must wear a mask, regardless of exemption status. Parents unable to mask for the duration of the conference are asked to change to a Zoom Conference for their comfort. Much appreciated! See you all very soon!

PAWS Student Leadership Teams Launch Sneakers for Good
What: Bring in pairs of gently worn, used or new sneakers and running shoes. No need to buy! Just clean out the bottom of the closet and the back of the car! Really! Any of them!
When: Tuesday, September 21st- Thursday, September 30th
Where: Students may drop off shoes in the morning where they enter the building or families may bring to school during conferences and drop them at the front lobby.
Why: Donated shoes are cleaned and sent to entrepreneurs in developing nations; it helps the entrepreneurs to grow their business and provide essentials for their families. (Check out Sneakers4funds.com)
Belmont Elementary also earns a small amount of money, but it's the doing something GOOD that we're most focused on here. Funds will go into the next PAWS Leadership Team project!
