Today was a BIG day in 1st grade at Bellwood Elementary! 🎉📚 Miss Meysenburg’s class became published authors through Studentreasures! We celebrated with a publishing party where students read their pages aloud, signed our class copy, and admired all of their hard work in print. So many proud smiles today! “Today Me & Future Me” - Bellwood 2025-2026 1st Graders

Dear Parents and Guardians,

You may be receiving an automated notification from FinalForms stating that your child’s physical is expiring. Since the current school year is ending, there is no action needed at this time regarding these notifications.

Families will be able to upload 2026-2027 physicals once FinalForms has been updated for the upcoming school year. Information and instructions regarding FinalForms updates and registration will be sent out during the first week of June.

Thank you for your patience and cooperation.

🍦🎉 Sweet Success in 3rd Grade! 🎉🍦

Our David City Third Graders celebrated all of their hard work with a multiplication sundae party! Throughout the year, students worked hard practicing and mastering their multiplication facts. Each topping on their ice cream sundae had to be earned by passing fact tests along the way! 🍨✨

We are so proud of the determination, growth, and effort our students showed all year long. They definitely deserved this sweet reward! Great job, 3rd graders!

The Bellwood & David City Elementary Field Day was a success! ☀️🏃‍♀️🏃‍♂️ Thank you to all the families who came out to watch, support, and cheer on our students throughout the day. We appreciate your encouragement in helping make this a fun and memorable event for all of our kids!

Today was the final day of the 2025-26 school year to recognize Positive Office Referrals at Bellwood Elementary, and we were able to celebrate 5 of them! Dax, Bentley, Sophia, Reanna, and Mary all were honored as Stellar Students for displaying different positive character traits. What made today even more exciting is that it was the first Positive Office Referral that three of these students have ever received. This was an amazing way to end the day!

David City Third Graders had another amazing opportunity with the 4H Extension Office this week! 🤖✨

Students learned all about Ozobots and practiced their coding skills by creating different color code patterns to guide the robots. They then got creative and designed their own unique codes before finishing with one giant collaborative code path for the Ozobots to follow!

A huge thank you to the 4H Extension Office for providing such a fun, hands-on learning experience for our students!

DCE and Bellwood 5th graders enjoyed their trip to Edgerton Explorit Center in Aurora. It was a fun, hands-on day of science!
