This comprehensive approach centers around the belief that learning is inherently a social and emotional process, deeply intertwined with the development of healthy identities, empathy, supportive relationships, and responsible decision-making. To align with the state framework, Ashland is preparing to adopt new K-12 curriculum tools. These will be online tools designed to be used in age-appropriate ways at each grade level from Kindergarten through high school graduation. Visit the site in the next 30 days to preview the online tools, read more about top choice WAYFINDER, and register your comments.

Tuesday at Bellview Elementary was extra sweet, as we rolled out the 'Woot Woot Wagon,' delivering treats to our fabulous classified staff! A roaming festival of gratitude, filled with snacks, smiles, and a little bit of magic, made its way through the halls, bringing joy and appreciation directly to our hardworking team. It's just one of the ways we say a huge thank you to those who help make our school a wonderful place for our children to learn and grow. #ClassifiedAppreciationWeek

Februarys community assembly was fantastic! We had singing from the Bellview choir, dances that students made up in PE, student awards for empathy, Bellview Bees teaching us about Friendship Skills, 5th grade leading us in the Bellview song, and cleanest classroom award going to Mrs. Preskenis' class! What a great day to be a Bobcat! 💙💛
