Since the removal of the last principal, it seems things are moving in a better direction. Cheri Law, the assistant principal, is wonderful and is doing a fantastic job taking over. The environment is once again warm and welcoming, and you can see a noticeable difference in many areas. I am happy things are turning around under new leadership!

My kids have had nothing but good dedicated teachers and they’ve grown so much in such a short time!

My child's experience has not been positive. The new principal has created a very rigid, tense environment, and is known for constant arguments with parents - always attempting to power struggle with everyone in her path, no matter what the issue. She has an awful reputation within the district and it's only her second year in the position.

While I believe the vast majority of the teachers in this school the office, principal, superintendant and school board are running it into the ground. Recently they have implemented "safety procedures" to protect the students. The 2 biggest threats they address: first parents(the principal herself assured me it is dangerous for kids to b with their parents and that is why they aren't allowed in the school or even out of their car to pick up their own children) second the school itself(I was told that the students must wait outside for their safety, implying that the building itself is dangerous). To sum up teachers are pretty good, everything else pretty awful.

My children have been at Belle Valley since Pre-K and we have been happy with every teacher along the way!! It is a fantastic school where their is a feeling of "family". We are looking forward to the new year and anxious to see how the new Principal will be in comparison to our beloved Mr. Colinear!!!
