At every age, kids need significant relationships. The significant relationships in a child’s life include parents, teachers, relatives, coaches, and spiritual leaders. As a parent, you can encourage these relationships as a way to ensure that other trusted adults are surrounding your kids with the same messages and advice that you would. So don’t miss it. This year, this month, today is just a Phase! A cada edad, los niños necesitan de relaciones significantes. Las relaciones significantes en la vida de un niño incluyen aquellas con los padres, maestros, parientes, entrenadores y guías espirituales. Como padres, ustedes pueden animar este tipo de relaciones con otros adultos confiables que están cerca de tus hijos para que compartan el mismo mensaje y consejos que ustedes hacen con ellos. Entonces, no te olvides: Este año, este mes, incluso hoy… recuerden ¡es solamente una fase!

1 / 14 A HUGE shoutout to our Belwood students! We started collecting uneaten cafeteria food this past week so we can stock our new food pantry located at Belwood. Your children are so kind and generous. We remind students to eat all the food on their tray that they want to eat for breakfast and lunch! Only donate unopened items they will not consume. In one week, Belwood rescued 213 POUNDS of food that we were able to send home with families who could use extra food over the weekend! If you would like more information on how we can work TOGETHER to grow Helping Hands Ending Hunger, please contact Ms. Holt monicaholt@gcbe.org or Ms. Bateman dbateman@gcbe.org WAY TO GO BELWOOD! #TogetherBES #TogetherGCS #GordonCountySchools #belwoodfamily #BuildingExceptionalStudents

Ms. Stephania Hyde's first grade classroom is having fun AND learning all at the same time! Using counters to create combinations of ten allows kids to discover those combinations on their own in a fun and exciting way. And the systematic and explicit teaching of phonics ensures that every student is learning essential skills to develop advanced readers:) #belwoodfamily #TogetherBES #TogetherGCS #GordonCountySchools
