The Bellwood Elementary Preschool hosted "Breakfast and Books with a Buddy" today. Preschool students were able to have one or two guests at school this morning. The event started with a literacy activity where preschool students worked with their guest(s) to write and illustrate a book. They then ate breakfast with their guests, received a children's book about feelings, took a picture with their guests, and read their new book. The books were funded by a literacy grant through ESU 7. It was such a fun event as the preschool students really enjoyed having guests at school and showing their guests what they are learning at school!

Spanish 4 students from the high school taught their 5th and final lesson to Bellwood Elementary students today. We really appreciate the Spanish 4 students giving our students this opportunity to learn from them.

Congratulations to the April 24 Scouts of the Week - Abby, Julien, Kendra, & Cami!

Tonight was a beautiful spring evening for Bellwood Elementary's Annual Family Walk Night. After walking around town, families ended up at the Bellwood American Legion for a family event. Students enjoyed a light supper, face painting, a bike rodeo, and fire truck and ambulance rides. It was such a great fun-filled community event! Thanks to the Bellwood American Legion and Legion Auxiliary, the Butler County Sheriff's Department, the Bellwood Volunteer Fire Department, Romshek Seed, and the Bank of The Valley for helping to sponsor this great event.

It was a fantastic day at District Music Contest for our Scout musicians! All students have been working incredibly hard since February on their music, and all students gave great performances today. We are so incredibly proud of our students for their performances today and for how they represented Scout Nation while we were at the contest!
