Teacher Appreciation Week is May 2-6. Each day this week will have a theme. Let’s show our entire staff how much we love them this week!




Updating everyone that the BES Fun Run will take place today! This is also a reminder to all parents, relatives and friends of the children participating that this is a closed school event. Thank you to the volunteers that assist the BES PTA to make today fun, safe and exciting for the kids. There will be more opportunities for volunteering in the near future. If you are interested in volunteering you will need to complete a background check. Go to https://bib.com/secure-volunteer/WOOD-COUNTY-SCHOOLS/home
The process takes 3-5 days results are good for one year.
Have a great day!
