ANNOUNCEMENT: SCREENAGERS VIEWING Bell PTSA Presents: Screenagers POSTPONED to March 29th due to impending weather. February 8, 2019 -7:00 pm Bell Elementary Commons Who should attend? Anyone that has or works with children Trailer: (scroll down) https://impactflow.com/event/presented-by-bell-elementary-ptsa-9934 Are you watching kids scroll through life, with their rapid-fire thumbs and a six-second attention span? Physician and filmmaker Delaney Ruston saw that with her own kids and learned that the average kid spends 6.5 hours a day looking at screens. She wondered about the impact of all this time and about the friction occurring in homes and schools around negotiating screen time—friction she knew all too well. Tickets: $7 each- https://impactflow.com/event/9934/checkout/tickets Light refreshments will be available for sale We will have a panel open for discussion after the film January's Bulldog Dine OutThank you to those that could join us for December's Dine Out at Mod Pizza.

2018-2019 Major FundraiserThis year we have changed our major fall fundraiser to a Direct Donation campaign. Rather than incurring costs to raise money for the events and programs our students rely on, we are asking for Direct Donations. With the Direct Donation campaign, you can be assured that 100% of your donation will go directly to the students at Bell. For Direct Donations, we are asking that families contribute what they can. If we can reach our goal of $50,000, we will not have a major spring fundraiser. Every amount matters, please donate what you can. We are looking for 100% participation. If you would like more information on where your dollars go for this fundraiser or a phone script to help your child take the lead in asking for support just click here. |
THANK YOU to ALL our PTSA Members who helped us on achieving the Gold level with Washington State PTA! With your participation we have grown our PTSA by 10% over last year. Thank you for all your hard work and enthusiasm to give a louder voice to children in Washington State. |
Talent WantedWe all have time and talents and Bell PTSA could use some of them to ensure the programs our students, staff and community rely on. We have something for everyone one. For more information, please reach out to our Diane, our PTSA co-president, at president@agbellptsa.org and see where you can help. Some of our open positions include the following: **Volunteer Coordinator:**-Can be done from home, no need to be at school. Support Our Students!Do you want to support our students while going about your every day life? There are so many opportunities while shopping, errands, and eating you can support the PTSA and your children. And you don't need to have a child at the school to take advantage of these - we love to have community support as well. Here are some of the examples to help support our school without having to make additional time in your day.
Want to find more ways to support our students? Go to agbellptsa.org and click on Support Our Students. Thank YOU for supporting our students. Communications 411 at Bell
New to the school and wondering how to get information about what events and programs are coming up? This information is for you! Bell PTSA knows you are a busy parent, so we attempt to make our communications efforts as diverse as possible to cover all of the bases.
Occasionally an all-school email will be sent out from the school office with more information about events or programs. Please like us on Facebook for the most up-to-date information. We love to hear from you!
If you have a question or concern, we are happy to help. Reach out to us at feedback@agbellptsa.org.
Online DirectoryThis year the Bell PTSA is providing a free online directory to help families find each other and connect. You will have the ability to decide what, if any of your information is visible, and update or correct it at any time. The directory will be available on the PTSA website, and you will update and publish your information using your website account. If you do not add your information, your student will NOT be listed in the directory. There is no paper directory offered this year. Collect Box Tops to support Bell!Do you collect Box Tops For Education? We earn 10 cents for our kids with each Box Top that we turn in - last year we earned $1000! Send in any Box Tops with your children, and join us for the next Box Tops Clippings and Coffee in the Bell Commons or Art Room (check the weekly Bulldog Blast for the next date and time). We will have conversation and clip and sort the Box Tops and Labels that have been received this school year. If you are new to our school, this is a great way to meet others. If you have any questions, please contact Box Tops Chair Halee Proctor at boxtops@agbellptsa.org Volunteer Time Match!Many of us work for companies (Microsoft, Boeing, Google among many) that will pay an organization such as Bell PTSA when the employee volunteers. If you have volunteered this school year at Bell please consider entering your time volunteered and direct it to AG Bell PTSA. If you have any questions, please contact fundraising@agbellptsa.org |
