If
you are someone who likes to purchase things from the internet, then
shop at
www.schoolmall.com to support our school, Bell Elementary. Make sure
to select our school on the home page.
We at Bell Elementary wants to provide a positive
learning environment for all students, staff, teachers, administrators,
and parents/guardians in the educational process. An inspired,
well-trained, professional & empowered faculty takes pride in our school
as a quality learning center. The mission of Bell Elementary is
"Excellence for Everyone, No Exceptions - No Excuses!" Enrollment has
increased from 432 students in 1998-99 to approximately 630 students in
the current year of 1999-2000. This increase in students is due to the
relocation of second grade from Walker to Bell Elementary this year. Our
school now serves students enrolled in primary grades.
In order to meet the needs of a
growing population of students, we have constructed a new media
center/library, ten classrooms, a science lab, and several resource
rooms. Our school has acquired eighty new computers in our technology
lab as well as Internet access in all classrooms. We have increased our
professional staff to meet the diverse needs of our students & prepare
them for the new millennium.
Our Site Based Council, which
includes our principal, two parents, and three teachers, is a vital
component of our school's overall success. Both administrators and
teachers are pro-active in maintaining open communication with parents
and encourage families to visit this exemplary school.
Bell Elementary has a student population of: 553
