Belwood Elementary School

April Character students were recognized May 8th with a special breakfast provided by our local Chick-fil-a restaurant. CFA Calhoun also provides the curriculum Core Essentials, which we use to promote core values in our students. Core values are personal ethics or ideals that guide us when making decisions, building relationships and solving problems. The core value for April was HOPE. Hope means believing that something good can come out of something bad.
