It's Been a Great Week at BES!!

Good Evening,


Happy Valentine's Day early! We had a busy but great week at BES! As hard as it is to believe, we are already almost halfway through 3rd nine weeks. We have been working with the district office to develop a report to be sent every two weeks to better keep you informed of your child's grades. This report will give you your child's latest yearly average in each of his/her classes. We will send our first report next Wednesday. the day of 3rd nine weeks progress reports. These reports will give you your child's yearly average as of next Wednesday. You will need to log into Parent Portal to see their 3rd quarter averages. After next Wednesday, we will be sending the report every other Friday through email. If you know of anyone that is not receiving these Weekly Updates through email, please encourage them to contact the school to update their email in the system so that they will receive these valuable reports.


Please know that we value your input. If you have any questions, comments, concerns or suggestions, please let us know. You can email us or call us anytime. We will respond within 48 hours of receiving the message. At BES, our mission is to partner with the home and community to provide a safe, supportive and innovative learning environment to ensure ALL students are equipped with the knowledge, skills and core values needed for success. These actions will enable us to reach of vision of creating a learning community that to Believe in themselves, Excel in performance, and Succeed in life.
