Happy Summer ☀️

We are already preparing for the 2026-2027 school year!

⭐️ If your student was at BES for kindergarten-5th grade, they automatically roll up to the next grade. Nothing is needed from you!

⭐️ Students who attended pre-K MUST stop by and register for kindergarten.

⭐️ We are still accepting registrations for pre-k and kindergarten! Stop by the office for a registration packet.

⭐️ New students to BES can stop by the office for registration packets.

⭐️ If your students are not returning to BES next year, please have their new school send us a transfer request as soon as possible.

⭐️ Call us at 423-299-0090 with any questions!
