If your child is missing a jacket, the lost and found is in front of the gym.

This year at BES our House system has decided to give back! Instead of a party or trip, our color houses have each adopted a non-profit to support this school year. GREEN house is our second quarter winner and they are supporting the non-profit Winnie’s Way. All BES students are invited to participate in a free dress day on Wednesday, Jan. 15th with a $5 dollar donation (larger donations are welcome)! Donations will be made through SchoolCash Online or you can pay with cash. All proceeds from this free dress day will go directly to Winnie’s Way.



Krewe Customs will be in the gym today 11-3 with tons of clearance spirit wear!!! Stop by for some great deals!
