October Menus


BES Families,
Report Card Pickup is on Tuesday, October 13, 2026, from 4:30-6:00pm. It will look a little different this year. Beginning at 4:30 PM, we invite families to pick up their child’s report card in the BES Cafeteria. After picking up report cards, families may head to their child’s classroom to meet with the teacher or stop by the Book Fair in the BES Library!
BES teachers will reach out by this Friday to families they would specifically like to meet with on October 13th. However, all families are welcome and encouraged to visit with their child’s teacher, even if you do not receive a specific request for a conference.
We look forward to seeing our BES families and celebrating our students’ progress!

🗺️🌸 We’re Putting Learning on the Map! 🌸🗺️
Our 4th Grade Lotuses proudly presented their map projects, demonstrating their creativity and understanding of important map skills. From compass roses and map keys to titles and details, our students showed that learning can be both meaningful and fun!
There were so many amazing projects of neighborhoods, towns, rooms, and even our school!
We are so proud of our Lotuses for creating, presenting, and blooming through learning! 🌸✨

August 23, 2026—The Marshall County School District will be closed Monday, August 24, 2026 due to impacts from the recent storms. It is never an easy decision to close school, but given the large number of families and staff members without power, we feel it is the best option. School will resume Tuesday, August 25, 2026 and schools will work with the families of those who remain affected by power outages.
BES is partnering with BMS to collect non-perishable food items for the next two weeks. One boy and one girl from each grade will be selected to represent BES at the BMS homecoming celebrations. Letters will be sent home Monday! #LetsGrowBES

Good afternoon, We have been informed that the Kids World Van will not be running tomorrow morning or afternoon. Please be sure to email Ms. Boxley at jemiaboxley@mcschools.us with any transportation changes or send a parent note with your child tomorrow. Thank you.
