Good school attendance means consistently being present and punctual at school, which is important for academic success and personal development. It reflects a student's commitment to their education, helps them stay up to date with lessons, and builds habits of responsibility. ♥️🐾

Dear BES Families,
A student is typically not too sick to attend school if they have mild symptoms, such as a slight cold, and are still able to focus and participate in class.
However, if a student has more severe symptoms, like a fever or is experiencing significant discomfort, it is best to keep them home to rest and prevent the spread of illness.
If a child is absent due to illness, it's important for parents to ensure that a doctor's note or excuse is provided to the school to clarify the reason for the absence and to support their return to class when they are fully recovered. This helps maintain accurate attendance records and ensures the child receives the proper accommodations.

Mrs. Bickham's class is spreading Christmas kindness and cheer all around our school. They made a banner for the office and cookies for the cafeteria workers!
Help us reach our attendance goal this month!
We would like to thank Pat's Coats for Kids for providing coats for our students, and we would like to thank Santa's Helper's for providing Christmas gifts. We appreciate you both!
We hosted our 2nd Parent Advisory Council on December 10th. Agenda topics: school goals, school subgoals and progress. Capturing Kids' Hearts. Parent survey results. Heggerty. Parents had a great time participating in a Kindergarten Heggerty lesson with our Literacy Coach Mrs. LeGrange. Heggerty is a literacy program that helps students develop reading and writing skills through phonemic awareness, phonics, and other strategies. All students in Head Start through 1st grade are taught Heggerty daily.

Dear BES Families,
Building the habit of good attendance is essential for academic success and personal development. It starts with creating a consistent routine that prioritizes being on time as well as being present everyday.
