The baseball games next Saturday with Wray are being moved up to 10 AM start time.
This past week, we had the chance to recognize an outstanding group of students who truly represent what it means to be a Cougar at BES. Our third quarter Citizenship Award winners consistently model the character, effort, and choices that make our school such a special place.
At BES, CUBS is a commitment to the values we build every day:
C – Caring: Showing kindness and helping others
U – United: Working together toward a common goal
B – Brave: Trying new things, even when it feels challenging
S – Strong: Having the mental discipline to choose what is right, even when it’s hard
As we remind our students, we can do hard things.
Our Citizenship Award winners live this out. They include others, make positive choices, and stay focused on doing what’s right, even when no one is watching. They help create classrooms where students feel safe, supported, and ready to learn. We are incredibly proud of them and grateful for the example they set for their classmates each day.

Below you will find the CMAS testing schedules for both BES and BMS. This is for students in Grades 3/4 and 5-8. These are important testing days for our students, and we kindly ask that families prioritize attendance on these dates to help avoid the need for makeup testing. Being present and on time helps students feel confident and keeps the testing schedule running smoothly.
Thank you for your support in helping our students do their best!

Reminder BES Circle Drive Closed - Monday, March 23
Access to the north circle drive will be closed on Monday, March 23 as the city completes a curb project that began over Spring Break.
Preschool Drop-Off & Pick-Up:
All preschool drop-off and pick-up will take place on the south side of campus, near the grassy area south of the old gym. Staff will have the sign-in/out sheet available there for parents.
If you are dropping off your preschool student late, please use the main entrance on the west side of the building.
K–4 Arrival & Dismissal:
Arrival for K–4 students will remain the same as normal. Dismissal will also follow normal procedures with one exception—kindergarten may use the south side of the old gym for dismissal at the end of the day on Monday if needed.
We expect this to be a short-term inconvenience and anticipate the work will be completed by Monday. We will keep you updated if there are any changes to the city’s plans. The road on the north side will be repaved later this spring, so this will also serve as a helpful practice for managing those future disruptions.
