PTSA Covid-19 Fundraiser

The Covid-19 pandemic has hit every single one of our families in different ways. At a minimum we find ourselves home schooling. Some of us find ourselves working remotely, others stay on as essential workers on the front line. Unfortunately, some of us are finding ourselves with less; less income to pay our bills, less food to feed our families.

This is where the Bell Community can help. Donations made through the PTSA’s “Help Our Families from Home” Fundraiser will support Bell families who are experiencing financial difficulty. All funds raised will go toward $25 Fred Meyer/QFC gift cards, which will in turn be distributed by Bell’s administrative team, Mr. Story, Ms. Schmied, and Ms. Zackery.

If you are a Bell family in need of help, please contact Mr. Story (bstory@lwsd.org), Ms. Schmied (sschmied@lwsd.org), or the school counselor, Brittni Zackery, at bzackery@lwsd.org.

If you can you help our Bell families, please click here to make your donation. As this is a "Stay Home - Stay Safe" time, we are only accepting online donations through PayPal at this time.  Bell PTSA is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization and all donations are tax deductible.

Enrichment Classes

Due to the remaining of the school year being taught remotely enrichment classes have been cancelled. A few of the vendors lined up do offer online paid sessions. Please feel free to visit our Enrichment page for more information. 

Multicultural Night

We had a great response to multicultural night and were so excited to get it in before the school closed! We wanted to share all of our wonderful participant recipes with everyone! Maybe this calls for a bake off when school starts again! :-)

Student IDs

Did you child receive a student ID this week? Have no fear - they do not need it to get around the building. They were lunch cards that were printed without the barcode so the school passed them out to the kids. Have fun with them! Use them for imaginative play! However they like, the students can have fun with them.
