What school district is Bell Elementary School part of?
I was a student at this school from 2014 to 2019. This school is a very good place to learn because there are little amounts of kids. The teachers and staff are all amazing, and Mr. Curt was nice to talk to during lunch. I prefer this place over Jim Hill because of the sheer size difference.
