Bell Oaks' Pride Club is so excited to be participating in a pen pal program this year! They were paired with a GSA all the way in Minnesota.
The students will be communicating throughout the year to their pen pals the old fashioned way...by writing letters! We can't wait to make connections and learn about others.

Bellmawr Park has been collecting socks all month for Socktober!
Their goal was 600 pairs of new socks to help those in need this winter season. The students brought in over 1,000 pairs of socks!!! We are blown away by the generosity of our Bellmawr families.
Since Bellmawr Park reached their goal, Mrs. Heller celebrated by dressing like a Silly Sock Lady today!

THANK YOU to our small group of parents, teachers, and administrators that participated in last week’s DEI (diversity, equity & inclusion) Committee Meeting! Although this work can be challenging since we all bring different perspectives to the table, I can’t think of anything more important to support our diverse community. The goal for our meeting was to engage in book talks surrounding our Elementary Inclusive Lending Library, specifically focusing on the state standards for reading and to evaluate text complexity (or simply put, the narrative’s ability to foster deep learning at a particular grade band). I can’t begin to say how WONDERFUL it was to see everyone unpack these texts together and to engage in meaningful conversation about the illustrations & vocabulary, and about text features such as genre or author’s purpose.
Red Ribbon Week is next week. Thank you for your participation! Please see flyer for details.
Congratulations to all the Students of the Month and their families who were honored at this week's Board of Education meeting. We are proud of you all. Please click to view the album: https://photos.app.goo.gl/GEQMYW8k4UDDXiSk6
