Titans at all six of our schools - we know Spirit Week begins tomorrow, but please consider wearing blue with your PJs in support of Jayden Veesenmeyer, his family, and the Pleasant Plains School District. They are all in our thoughts and prayers.

Our 4th grade math classes have had a multiplication bootcamp all week to practice math facts. Today they went outside for a field day where they played various games all while practicing their math facts, working together as a team, and cheering on their classmates!

Here are a few pictures from the first day of STEAM classes at BES! Students were challenged to create a 3-dimensional figure with Legos using a base plate. @BCSD5_BES
