Don't forget all volunteers need to update their profile each year. You will need this complete before helping out on parties or attending field trips. The great news is that it only takes a few minutes on your computer or a computer at Bell Manor!
Sometimes it can get cool in the classroom! You might want to send a sweater or sweat shirt with your student if they are feeling cold in class. Remember to put your child's name on the inside of their jackets, coats, etc.
Most Importantly, thank you for being a part of your student's education! It is the most important thing they will accomplish in life!

I am so excited about the 2018-201 school year here at BME!  This will be my 19th year teaching and 15th year at Bell Manor Elementary. I have taught 3rd, 5th and 6th but love 2nd the most! I graduated with a B.A. in Literature and a Masters in Leadership and Policy Studies.

This year we will be exploring content, thinking critically, pursuing passions, and sharing things via the internet! I am looking forward to helping your scholar become their best!

Please contact me if you have any questions!
