Please see Mrs. O’s Spotlight Week of September 14!

Spend $40 and get a Cal Tort card worth $50 when you join the PTA online (or find the paper form on the Support the PTA tab on the website.)  Deadline is September 15.

Please find Mrs. O’s Spotlight for the week of 09-07-15. Included are details and times for Back to School Nights next week.

The Spotlight is different from BearPost (the PTA newsletter that you receive on Thursdays) because it is directly from the Principal’s office. Please read these newsletters weekly for important notes, requests and updates related to Bells Mill.

Enjoy the long weekend!

You can bring in anything from juices to muffins, but don’t stop there. The possibilities are endless. You can either choose to bring an item listed below or you can make something that’s not on the list (there is an empty slot as well) .… Read Full Post

We hope that everyone has had a fun and relaxing summer!

With the first day of school just two weeks away, attached please find two important documents:

1) Mrs. O’s Parent Letter August 2015 with information on staff changes, the Open House, arrival/dismissal times (new for this year!), lunch and bus schedules;

2) The Bells Mill PTA Welcome Letter. Now is a great time to join the PTA online before the back-to-school chaos!
