Headphones???
At this time, we are putting a callout for headphones, as we do not have
class sets to provide to all of our students. If you have a pair of
headphones that your student(S) can be keep at school please send them in. Please clearly LABEL headphones with: last
name, teachers name, room number & in a ziplock bag. These will
be kept with their teacher in a bin until the end of the school year and then
sent back. If you have a spare pair of headphones that you would like to
donate to the school please drop them at the office.

The 411 on Belfast Policies
We have several new families that we have welcomed to our
#belfastyfamily since Winter Break. At this time we wanted to just
highlight a few KEY policies that we have at Belfast and quick reminders for
the rest of our community.
Health & Wellness
·
At Belfast we have a Food Policy that we adopted as we have
numerous students with severe anaphylactic allergies. Students cannot
bring food items to share rather we welcome non-food items (pencils, erasers
ect) for students to be able to handout to class members in times of celebrations.
#neverendingfruit
bowl

This year Belfast adopted fresh fruits for snacks to give out in the
office. Some of our students find at times they just need a little more
throughout their day. If you are in a position to donate snacks to the
office we are asking for fresh fruits bag of apples, oranges, bananas ect
