Happy New Year to all Bells Mill families from the PTA. We hope you had a safe and relaxing holiday break and are excited for 2024. The PTA has many activities and programs planned for the New Year, and we’ll continue to share updates weekly in the Bear Post with more information. Thanks for your support of the PTA and the extended Bells Mill community.

FLEX academies will be offering programs on Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday afternoons. Enrollment is now open and spots are limited. View flyer here for classes and schedule.
