Haylee Bellina

Haylee Bellina traded beautiful sunsets on the beach for vibrant city skylines as she recently made the exciting move from Tampa to Charlotte. She's thrilled to begin this new chapter and eager to explore all the opportunities her new home has to offer.

Haylee grew up in New Jersey, where she began dancing at the age of three and spent much of her life performing, competing and choreographing. Her love for creativity and collaboration led her to the University of Tampa, where she earned her bachelor’s degree in Elementary Education and her master’s degree in Curriculum Development and Instruction. She brought her passions together by teaching first grade and coaching K-12 cheerleading which brought her so much joy to inspire students both in the classroom and on the sidelines. 

At the heart of her teaching philosophy is a belief in the power of strong relationships, fostering a love for learning, and helping each child feel confident and empowered to thrive. Haylee is beyond excited to pour her heart into the classroom to create a space filled with laughter and learning making this school year a memorable chapter in each student’s life.
