BECS Board Seeking New Directors
We have always been fortunate to have great parents who have helped steer the direction of the school with our children in mind. The BECS Board of Directors is seeking to fill new seats and would love your input. With great Executive Directors Dr. Fiedler and Mrs. Webber running our operations, the responsibilities of the Board are less than in years past and we now focus on the big picture and end goals for BECS. We welcome new ideas and individuals who can bring fresh perspectives to ensure BECS remains a preeminent charter school in Colorado. Please review the documents below and feel free to reach out to BECS Board of Directors at Board@bromleyeastcs.org to learn more.

8th Grade Families
As 8th graders have been thinking about their high school options this past month, we know there have been multiple registration questions. The BECS counseling department has set aside the first week in March to assist students in their registration process. Students going to BHS will have the opportunity to ask BHS counselors questions during LEAD class on March 4th. Students planning on going to one of the other high schools will also have the chance to meet with one of our counselors if they have questions regarding their registration. Please CLICK HERE to view a compiled list of local schools and information.
