From the Principal
Mission
Belton Elementary School will, through collaborative efforts with the home and community, encourage students to
B
elieve in themselves,
E
xcel in performance, and
S
ucceed in life.
Welcome to the 2008-2009 school year!
I send greetings to all of the returning students and families and a very special welcome to those joining Belton Elementary for the first time. Successful student learning thrives with open communication and an active parent-teacher-school partnership. We look forward to another productive and successful year.
Our focus will be providing each child with new challenges that will result in a rewarding school experience.
Academic achievement
in all subject areas will remain a priority as we provide a learning program that builds each year to meet local and state standards. Our primary instructional focus will be on literacy-reading and writing.
School attendance
is mandated by the state and is vitally important to success in school. Please make sure your student is in attendance every day, arriving on time prepared for the day. When scheduling appointments, we ask that you plan these for after school hours. We also ask that student transportation is taken care of before your child comes to school.
For the safety of our children, we will no longer take transportation requests/changes by telephone.
School health
will remain a focus this year. Please look under Parent Links Student Health and Fitness Act for important information concerning nutrition and healthy school celebrations. It is important to note that healthy and rested children learn best. Make sure that your child gets plenty of rest at night and has healthy nutritional meals and snacks.
As we begin this year, please remember that this is your school and we welcome your involvement. We appreciate all the community has done for Belton Elementary. We will continue to strengthen the school-community partnership this year through planned workshops and other curriculum events.
If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to call. I look forward to working with you during this school year. I envision a school year with excitement as we watch our children learn.
