Message from the Principal
BBE Parents,
We are are hitting our stride after a great Spring Break! Students are working hard after benchmark testing and gearing up for the last 8 weeks of school. We have important events coming up so check the calendars and information on the newsletters to stay informed. Battle of the Books Campus Battle is next Wednesday to determine our teams for the district battle. PTO has their General Meeting on the same day at 9AM in the Cafeteria so please make plans to attend.
This is just a reminder that on testing days, especially in April, we will be a closed campus to visitors and deliveries.
Great things are happening at BBE and we appreciate your support. We are proud of the efforts the students and staff have put in and looking forward to a great ending to the 2025-2026 school year!
Thank you for trusting us with your students. Bears LEAD the Way! All the Way! Go Bears!
