Ward named Tribe Member of the Week

Bellefontaine City Schools is proud to announce its Thursday Tribe Member of the Week.

Brielle Ward is this week’s recipient.

Title: Bellefontaine Elementary School Preschool Teacher

Years of experience: 16 years

Why you love being a Chieftain: Everyone is friendly and though I’m not from the Bellefontaine area, the community and environment have been nothing but welcoming. I’m also in awe of the way so many work together to ensure the success of every student and their family in our district.

Classroom motto or quote to live by: “Every child deserves a champion - an adult who will never give up on them, who understands the power of connection, and insists that they become the best they can possibly be.” – Rita Pierson

What you love doing outside of school: I love spending time with my family and many pets traveling, going to festivals, attending my children’s many sporting events as well as staying in and having movie/game nights. I also enjoy gardening, baking, and watching/playing baseball and softball.
